Don't have kids, that's fine, I'm not having any either and I'm significantly older than you so I can attest to the fact that it's a viable life choice. Just don't be surprised when your friends start having children that you're excluded from all the fun and frivolity. Also, get used to people saying you're selfish and self-centered. People are going to ask what's wrong with you physically and who's 'fault' it is that you 'can't' get pregnant, too. Be prepared to defend your decision to not have kids over and over again and you'll be fine.

As evidenced above, people are going to patronize you and say that you'll change your mind when you get older (because obviously you can't know your own mind until you hit some magical age) or that all you need to do is start hanging around other people's children. People can be really lovely when they don't think you're living the life they approve of. I've come to realize that a lot of it is out of jealousy. You'll be able to do things with your life that they cannot because you don't have kids and they do. Misery loves company and all that. Just keep in mind that if you're in a relationship with someone who wants children you're either going to have one you don't want or risk not allowing your partner to live the life he's dreamed of for himself. Both things are wrong and you should really try to find a partner who also doesn't want kids.
