Well I had another death my family and before folks give me the "There-there" treatment the person who died wasn't really close to me and frankly I don't really give a damn about 'em, that's not was getting to me-what's getting to me is a lot of my family members are either passing away or is in ill health and passing away. The only people I have left in my family that I care about are two uncles (I'm not really close to them but I don't harbor any ill feelings towards them), cousins on my father's side who I talk to on Facebook---(my mother's side either don't know I'm alive or don't care so the feeling's mutual), my father, my sister and her husband and that's pretty much what's left of my family tree. The deaths in my family wouldn't bother me if I had a wife or girlfriend to share my life with and maybe have kids but fate pretty much screwed me and I'm just not that lucky with the ladies so now I have a dilemma:

I need to some way of passing on my family's bloodline or it all ends with me. I know my sister and her husband are trying to have kids but she's addicted to cigarettes and her reproductive system isn't the best in the world and I doubt she'll ever have any kids, if she does it'll be a miracle. I've thought about donating seamen to a sperm bank and hope that maybe I'll be able to continue my bloodline that way and by the look of things that's probably the corse of action I'll have to take.

Just go back one more generation and you're miraculously have tons more relatives

I've never cared for "passing on the family name" and absolutely despise genealogy. The human race will continue with or without my last name just fine.

You are only 33. I am 44 and don't have wife and kids too.

But one day...

Struggle finding a wife? Go to the Phillipines or Thailand.

No, seriously a bunch of Norwegian men do it.

You sister could adopt (not sure if you would count that).

I may be young but my dad isn't. He really wants to be a granddad and I want to honor that wish before he passes away, but how can I give him what he wants when women don't give me a chance. I have no problems talking to women but it always seems I'll never then friends to them .

I'm not traveling overseas---not in this day in age---its just not safe anymore. If things don't go as planed for my sister having kids, adopt is probably the next thing she'll do.
