half of my married friends are getting divorced or separated. the few couples I know with kids are generally miserable (without saying it, but you can tell). I guess kids could be great and parenting could be great but you never know until you're in it, right? Lots of people are just not cut out for parenting and shouldn't bother.
Anyway, even though being single is hard at time (being lonely especially), I look at my married with kids brethren and can only surmise that I took the right path.
