    I want this so bad, but at 40 years old, I feel like I’m running out of time. I want my kid to see me as a superhero (at least for a couple years), not some tired worn out old man.

      It’s not too late for you. I have seen some 70 year olds in great shape both mentally and athletically. Start taking care of your diet and start being physically active now. And what greater motivation to stay in shape than being able to be there for your kids?

      And even if you turn out to become a tired worn out man anyway I bet they would still appreciate having you than no dad at all.

        Oh I’m in great shape, best I’ve ever been in! I’m even competing in a bodybuilding competition here in a couple weeks 😁 Kinda just makes it even more sad that I’m having such a hard time finding someone to have kids with lol like, damn, I guess it’s been my personality this whole time
