Relationships :: Growing Up & Growing Old

I can’t believe it.

I’m feeling so old mainly because some of my friends are getting MARRIED. They are now engaged, and I’m like blown away. I just finished a relationship, and some people are locking in for life? Pure madness, in my eyes. I’m only 22, I can’t imagine being married by the time I’m 23 or 24. Kudos to everyone that is!

I’m very excited for them, mainly because I want to go to a wedding… haha. Selfish I know, but I need to start budgeting for weddings and gifts!

Definitely makes you think about your life though. I’ve been talking to a friend who is engaged and he’s all about how it’s about the person. “You just haven’t met the right guy yet”. Sigh. I hate that saying. It’s saying that we have no control over who and when we decide to settle down. If ever. It’s annoying. It’s the people in relationships way of pitying the single people in their lives. Haha. Ok, so maybe that’s a little bitter, but it’s true in a way. Maybe pity isn’t the right word, but because they are so happy they can’t fathom that single people might be happy ALONE. This is a broad generalization. Obviously there are exceptions to this saying. But this is how I feel. It’s the same with children. I don’t want kids, and I get the pity “Don’t worry, you’ll change when you’re older” saying. No, I don’t think so. I’ve been like this for a long time. I don’t like them. Period. Now stop saying I’ll change.

Hah this post got bitter really quick. Let’s stop there, and just be happy.

CONGRATULATIONS to all my friends about to tie the knot.
