    I do owe them having a good and normal successful life and giving them grandchildren, but I won’t be able to.

      why do you owe them grandchildren, because they did the bare minimum?

        Because they love me deep down and they went through so much struggle for me, and I want to make them happy and proud of me

          and the only way to make them “proud” is forcing yourself to have children?

            No, I mean I just don’t want to disappoint them

              you should live your life for yourself, not for others (cliche phrase, but it’s true)

                I should live my life so it benefits me and others the most

                  except forcing yourself to have children doesn’t benefit you at all, it actually does the contrary

                    Yeah I agree that it exceeds my well being and doesn’t benefit my parents enough to justify it. And sometimes you really can’t make good decisions, your biology instinctually does otherwise.
