"why aren't you engaged yet? you're getting old." says a so called friend whom i wanted to punch in the face after asking me that question.
well let's see, shall i go down the list? no, because it's not worth it, and it's as simple as this; i don't need to be engaged, nor have a significant other to be happy. i'm happy by myself, living my life. and if mr.right rolls up one day in the midst of it all, then that's fanfriggintastic. but really, is 25 years old too old to not be engaged? is there a rule that you have to be married by a certain age? is there a memo floating around that says "YOU HAVE TO BE MARRIED BY 25?"..because i didn't get that memo. what i do in my life, is MY life. yes, i would love to have someone to share these great moments with that occur in my life, but i'm not going to dwell over the fact that i'm single at age 25; do you know how many couples i know that are miserable with each other, yet are still dilly dallying in their relationships because they are "scared" of being alone; eh, i think i said this before; in those kinds of relationships, where one doesn't reciprocate, you are alone. the grass isn't always greener on the other side my friends; i can't sit here and say that marriage is wonderful because i have never been married, but from what i see, it's a lot of fucking hard work and sometimes drama filled; so to the friend who asked me why i am not engaged yet, here is a little advice for you; why don't you worry about your relationship and start realizing that not everybody is on the same page as you. amen.
