Possible Regret
I had my vasectomy over 6 months ago. I’m only 35, don’t have kids, am single, and have never wanted kids. But to this day I still feel weird for doing what I did. I say this because I don’t have a sex life and haven’t had one for years. I got a vasectomy out of precaution to avoid the risk of potentially ever having a kid as it’s not a responsibility I feel I could commit to. What also makes me feel weird and even guilty is that the Dr said only like 1-5% of the people he gives vasectomies to are individuals like myself (haven’t had kids, don’t want kids, etc). Maybe that percentage is higher. One thing I wish I had considered doing before the vasectomy was sperm preservation but this wouldn’t have made sense being that I don’t want kids. I’m just worried that no one will want to be with me because I did this. Was this a poor choice by me?
