Heard a group talking about their children on the train this morning. Nothing unusual about that but for the first time in my life I knew that I was never going to have kids. It doesn’t feel like a choice I consciously made.

I met somebody in my early 20’s who turned me inside out in a way that I simply can’t put into words. They completely weren’t interested. Life moved on and..... kept moving on yet nothing changed.

Sometimes feels like I’m going to end up being a short column in the local paper along the lines of person found dead after neighbours complain of smell.

Anyway.

Sorry sending you Flowers
It’s tough out there. Are you too old to have kids? Could you do it on your own? Lots of people do these days. Sorry if that comes across as insensitive, it’s not meant to! Even without kids, you can have a fulfilling life

You could always foster parent if that is something that appeals or adopt?

Maybe get yourself out there too on the dating front! You're still only young and have the world at your feet xxx
