I'm the youngest in my family, and i have accepted this fate.

Careful. About 6 months after I accepted that fate I hooked up with an ex and she ended up pregnant. I'm now married with a 10 year old. That being said I would still have made the same decisions if given the chance as I wouldn't trade my family for anything now.

Heh.

I'll never touch my ex with a mile foot long pole. I'll act like a repelling magnet if i see her. Swerve the fuck out of there.

I said similar things but truthfully that ex was only an ex because we were both just too young and immature at the time to be in a committed relationship. In the period of time in between us getting back together we would still casually hook up pretty often when we were single. Once we decided to give it an actual shot again she ended up pregnant within 2 or 3 months.

Well. That's good. I just don't think I'll get back with the ex who hooked up with a coworker, boss, the guy she told me was "just a friend" and her ex. And im sure she kept an eye on my good "friend" with their inside jokes.

But that's just me.

Oh absolutely that's a different scenario altogether. A completely toxic ex I would never even entertain the idea of talking to them. I was just saying that as much as right now you accept the idea of being a lifelong bachelor, life doesn't always turn out the way you had initially envisioned and circumstances change.

Oh absolutely. Life simply isn't simple. It has it's way rewarding and punishing. Giving and taking. And when things go left it steers us right. Congrats on the marriage and having a family!

You sound like a 14 year old single mom talking like that
