im 19 years old and for the past week I have been wanting a baby. I don't know where this all came from but I have been wanting a baby boy or girl.it doesn't matter if it is mine even if a girl finds me and she has a baby I don't care. I want to know what it feels like taking care of another human. I want the feeling of raising another person. watching them grow up. play outside with them roll in the grass. all of that I want it.

That is very sweet, what you have said.

Age-wise, probably not ready. But you will get there - you have a long life to live.

Agreed with Hamster. I think it is very sweet and noble of you, and I can to an extent share your sentiments, but a child is a TON of responsibility as well. It'd be best to wait...get yourself into a position that you can support the child as best you possibly can. You have a lot of stuff left to do in life.

its the truth. if I find a girl or she finds me and she has a child I will raise it as my own. I wont turn my back on it. I will love the baby and care for it as if it came from me. but your right. its probably best if I wait. thank you for your input!

Babies are fun AND a ton of work, and then they grow and have minds of their own, and are even more work.

You are still very young, take your time, you have lots of it

Since half of the marriages result in divorce (I do not know the figure for cohabitation relationships without marriage and I am not sure if the stats are kept), you always need to assess your potential parenting partner from the standpoint of her post-divorce cooperativeness in regards to child-rearing. You are too young to make that assessment well, I think.

so the past month or so ive been flirting with this girl and she has been flirting back. well today I asked her out and she said yes. I think this is where all the feelings of wanting a baby came from because she has a baby boy. im not dating this girl just because she has a baby. im dating her because I really like her

All of it sounds entirely benign and promising. Enjoy.
