Do you want to be pregnant for nine months and then have a baby that you have to take care of 24/7? You will no longer have your own life to live to do as you wish; you will be responsible to a very small person. And that will be only the first child. There could be more. Are you willing to raise children, teach them good behavior, and make sure they grow up to be responsible adults? That's what parenthood is all about.
Do you want to have regular sex with a husband, make him dinners, pack his lunch for work, sit and watch DVDs with him or find a babysitter and go out to dinner and a movie? If he gets sick, you are willing to help him get to a doctor? If he throws up, you will clean up the mess? If he has heart surgery, you will be in the cardiac waiting room and be willing to talk with his doctors afterwards to find out his prognosis and at-home care? That's what marriage is all about, being there and helping each other.
Instead of wishing for something that you won't like if you get it, why not work with what you've got? Of course, finding a job would be a good thing. Did you ever talk with the library people about working there, maybe shelving books or doing something in tech services, such as processing library materials? They will train you. In fact, maybe you could work for a while as a volunteer to see if you like it there. There may even be an AS job coach in your area who will work as a go-between with you and the library (or other workplace).
