1. What if I don't have any thing in common with my little and they think I'm boring! 2. I work crazy hours. I don't have the time to make such a big committment! 3. I'm married (in a relationship, or have children) I can't justify time away from them ! 4. I don't have the money to take someone to a movie or hockey game every week (ask my girlfriend) ! 5. I don't want to become a 'parent' to my little!
