I like to think we get on; I like you all the time; you are attractive. I only wish I were less intimidated by maths and programming so you'd feel easier with me, because I love shopping but not ever for me and you do fashion and skirts and femme stuff I don't and I think it's fabulous that you do.
As for kids, and you not having any at present, people who ask are thoughtless insensitive sh1tes. Sorry, but I went through this as a single woman, too. My infertile friends have gone through it. It's always rude. Had I been childless when I married I'd have resorted to saying (as it's too often women who ask) "why? Are you offering me /your/ husband?"
Lastly, wanting a child is not unfeminist, in my book, but there's always someone around to tell you Yer Feminism It's All Rong. A child murders sleep more than Macbeth ever did is all I'm saying, but I'm happy to have the one. Don't have a big family because you read about it in a book. :-)
