You know yourself better than us and I don't kbow your reasoning behind that "it's just not my thing" so I can't tell you either way.
I've never wanted kids and wish I had gotten a vasectomy earlier than 28. I'm 35 now. Looking at the world, I can't say it's done anything but constantly reaffirm the same conculsions I've drawn since I started thinking about sterilizing myself at 16.
I never changed my mind because my reasons weren't shallow. More of a reaction to my environment and the nightmare nature of reality most refuse to acknowledge, choosing delusions and unevidenced beliefs instead.

I share the sentiment and have always felt the same way since I started thinking about it (even as a kid myself). The idea of having kids never appealed to me, I don’t like being around them, never have, still don’t at 35. I have a handful of nephews/nieces now and still don’t enjoy hanging around them even for short bursts of time… I don’t have the patience for the screaming, crying, breaking shit, tantrums, messes, etc.
It’s a 24/7 job for at least the next 20 years if you go through with it.

Hmm okay, in this case I think there's a high chance your preferences could change as you age.
