Today, the last of my close friends announced she is pregnant. Meanwhile, I'm single and my nest is empty. Well, not exactly, because even my freaking cat is pregnant. FML

I don't know why women feel like they must compete to see who gets married/involved and knocked up first. It's not a contest, wait until you are in love with a responsible guy, and you're emotionally and financially capable of taking care of another human being.

Guess there is a more fertile pussy living with you.

With that attitude you'll be keeping the men away nicely. No one wants someone desperate for kids because their friends (and cat) are up the duff.

....thats why you spay your cat.

Single pringle! For now, just enjoy and travel the world. It will cost you sh*tloads when you get kids.. And good luck with the kittens

If you want kids, artificial insemination. If you want a guy that bad, go to a website. If you want a guy just to have kids, you need to be slapped. If you just want a guy and kids just because of some delusion women are fed that that's what equals a happy fulfilling life, the slap returns. I really can't feel sympathy for this kind of stuff. Sorry.

It's ok to not be pregnant, the world is overpopulated anyway.

Have the cat desexed if it bothers ypu that much. Kind of simple?

I will take you out and treat you like a lady

OMG please enjoy the time you have for yourself, your friends would be having a very hard time to go through labor, horrifying birth and tons of poop and tantrums and financial insecurities, and the cat will provide you with furry loving kittens that you can enjoy whit-out the birth pain and breastfeeding. I just wish to show you like in a movie what a parent goes through every single day (in particular a mother) and you will wonder how can anyone do this and not go insane... you have an idilic idealist image about what having kids is. Reality is nasty and tough and so far from idilic. Enjoy your clean walls, clean furniture, free time, time for yourself, sanity, money just for you, take vacations enjoy the single life! you need to be on Prozac or some other way to help you not loose your mind? and you want to loose your freedom? then get married and have kids, God forbid you end up with one with ADHD or other problems... not to scare you, but sincerely it is really exhausting and a loooot of work to be a parent despite unconditional love and patience. Just relax and let things move on in their own pace.

I agree that being a parent is a lot of hard work and she should not rush into it, but how can you know that OP has an idealist image of parenthood? I know people who came from a family with a lot of kids, and the older siblings basically had to raise the younger ones. Or people who were the "father/mother" of their niece/nephew for whatever reason (like one of the child's actual parents abandoning it). And there are tons of other ways to get a glimpse of what being a parent is like. So though OP may not have a complete idea of what being a parent entails (hard to experience I suppose without actually being one), that DOESN'T mean she has this fairy-tail idealistic image of it. And don't tell me that anyone who truly understands how hard it is to be a parent wouldn't want any kids, because if that were true people would never have a second child after experiencing the first.

I understand you completely, I'm the only one of my friends who is not married yet, don't even have a boyfriend FML

I know how you feel. I accepted a long time ago no man would want me. And turns out I can have kinds even if a man wanted me.
