I'm 26, I keep myself healthy, I have a pretty good job, and I'm single. What the fuck is wrong with that?
Sorry I bought a stupidly big bong today and my family is recently again giving me shit for being single so I'm venting. A lot of my friends are starting to marry, a lot of my family already has, and now my cousin just got engaged. And my family couldn't be happier. Thing is, he's my age and my family is really laying into me lately about at least starting dating again.
I haven't had a serious girlfriend for over 3 years at this point, and honestly, I'm happy. I have nothing against relationships, they can be great. I just have had to deal with mostly the opposite.
I dunno, I'm just bitching honestly. Has any of my fellow RIU'ers dealt with this? I mean I totally respect marriage and relationships and all, but its not for everyone. Why is the end goal in life a monogamous partnership? Do you know many people that have actually achieved this? It's a tiny number of marriages that actually last, and last happily. Why the fuck am I made to expect this?
