So I went to go get a vasectomy at age 30. The lady dr tried her damnedest to get me to reconsider. I ended up leaving the office waiting room right before I was to have the procedure. I was very scared because of what the Dr had told me.

Told me I would have constant testicle pain, etc (not true).

So I didn't go through with it. God I wish I had. I don't have any kids or anything, but at 41 I finally got it done. Mine went as badly as one could go. The infection and inflammation didn't go away and I was in great pain for weeks before finally they found the right antibiotic. But, I wouldn't trade it for anything.

Mine went horribly and I'm still out here telling you to get it done. It's amazing. What does that tell you?

Don't believe the scare tactics. It's bullshit.

Right! It’s good to have the option for everyone.

My family doctor asked what my wife thought before scheduling me in, as did the doctors of my friends who've had them. My doctor wasn't too aggressive about it but the doctors of some of my friends were.

For people that are single it shouldn't be an issue but I feel like it's a good a back check on people who are married (or common law with kids)... You shouldn't be making decisions like that on your own if you're in a dedicated relationship and if the two if you can't come to a common consensus the whole relationship needs some major work (or to end).
