So in the past 2 weeks I have had 6 conversations with 6 different women about their unease with not being engaged or married. Only one of them is over 30. What in the world is going on? Since when do people in their mid 20s start exasperating about marriage? I've heard of wanting a baby at this age but wow. They aren't even worried about kids that much. It's all about that lifelong partner.
Female #1 - Everywhere I go I see women my age with rings. It depresses me.
Me - How do you know they're your age?
Female #2 - OMGosh if I don't meet my husband this year it's all downhill.
Me - Ummm will you be 30 next yr?
Female #2 - No.
Female #3 - I feel like all my friends are getting married =(
Me - Am I your friend? Am I getting married? Am I worried about it?
Female #4 - OMGosh I'm never going to be married, no one will want me.
Me - Ummm aren't you extremely attractive, don't you have no kids, you have multiple degrees, extremely loving, and you're not crazy? What makes you think this?
This is the kind of stuff I'm hearing... is it the weather? Has winter gone on for too long? What gives?
