Happy and Single!

For last couple of months I got asked these questions repeatedly -

  • 'When are you getting married?'
  • 'Why are you still single?'
  • 'How come no one has taken you so far?'
Sometimes I get amused. Sometimes just speechless. 

I remember when I was college, people used to ask me -'when are you going to get job?'. Now people ask me -'when are you going to get married?'. I am sure some folks ask married people -'When are you going to have kids?'

Truly speaking, I think its everyone's personal preference. They can get kids whenever they want, not to shut someone up. I can get married whenever I want. If I chose to be happy and single(YES I SAID HAPPY AND SINGLE), that's my personal preference.

Why people think that a person is only happy when she/he is married to person. I am sure married people have some problems in their life(With due respect to all my married friends). Why do I need a partner to go to vacation? 

I love cleaning my house, painting my toe nails, putting my apartment pictures on pinterest. Is this SO BAD? Honestly I own some things which I am not ASHAMED of that. I am happy being Dolphia. I watch the big bang theory while having ice cream at my couch. I read the all NYTIMES bestseller fiction books. I go to check new places in weekend, cooking delicious meals for myself. I am asking-'AM I TOO SAD?'

So-should I just get married to answer your question? I really wonder do they don't have any better things to do in life? 

I know, I am a woman and a biological clock is always ticking. I am 28 now and if I dont get married now, I wont have kids. And as I'll get older it will be more complicated. So the clock is ticking. Screw the clock! I can find someone when I am 45 and I can spend my rest of the life with him. We can have(adopt) kids if we want. It will be our choice, not you or someone else is gonna tell me what to do...
So, what I want to say - it's everyone personal choice what they want to do in their life. We have no right to ask them 'Why, how, when!'.

  4. Me and fellow gals coined an acronym R.D.S. which is short for rather die single...Not literally but would rather die single than be in an unhappy relationship...
