Recently I have started to feel...well, like an old maid. Don't get me wrong, I'm in now way, shape, or form ready to get married. Neither am I looking for marriage. But, let's be honest, when all of your friends are starting to settle down...and even beginning families, it's a little hard not to feel ancient.
I love the "college life." I mean, check out my transcripts, for a couple of semesters there you would see I loved it a little too much. But, right now I feel like I am leading a life of a person twice my age. Working full time--at an office where everyone is married and established (even tonight I get to attend a work party full of married people and their children...and me. I hope they set a place for me at the kids table), taking classes at night...without the establishment a person twice my age should have. Isn't there a balance somewhere?
The whole "married when you are young" thing really was popular with people my age...leaving me feeling one step behind.
So, I guess my question is, am I wrong in thinking I am young enough to stay in this stage of life longer?
