^ Fuck 'em, I say!
I'm in the same situation. Both of my older sisters are in their late 20s and neither of them are married nor have they been in any kind of serious relationship, so my parents have given up on them. My brother who is same age as me is nowhere near getting married either, but he gets away with it because he's a guy they let him get away with anything. I'm the one who has been ensnared by their parental glare! I'm sick of all the "And Kate, when are you going to settle down and have kids?" or "How come you don't have a serious boyfriend, what about those lovely boys that you live with". I'm only 21 for fucks sake! :( To make it even worse, I'm half-Italian... so to them I'm the epitome of a living sin, sharing a house with members of the opposite sex and not being married! Argh! |
I was NOT thankful when Take-Two Interactive postponed a lot of their franchises to 2010. I was so looking forward to BioShock 2! "More quality due to longer development time"? Gimme a break. At least I have Dragon Age Origins to tide me over...
I've also been hit with more stupid ignorant people in the past year than I care to remember. I'll give you just one example. Last month I was on a flight to Indonesia and ended up sitting on my own. Yeah, hard to get five seats together, isn't it? I'm practically ****ting myself because I'm terrified of flying, but at least I have three seats to myself. Then some fat **** sits down next to me, filling his own seat and oozing into mine as well. He falls asleep for the whole flight, wakes up for the food (of course), and then falls asleep again. He snores like a pig, and even when I switch on all three reading lights and tread on his foot, he doesn't wake up. And all this time he doesn't consider the fact that he is almost sitting in my seat, and is stopping everyone on the flight from sleeping with his snoring. Pay for three seats or go on a diet, fatty, because you are just not considering anybody else. And there's been more incidents like this too, but I won't bore you guys. God, I hope 2010 is better... |

You obviously know all this, but if there's something that can never be said too much, it's the fact that it ain't right until it's right.. and forcing it is only going to make matters worse in the long run. Let life take its course, and never make decisions based on someone else's expectations. You and I, and most of us know this... but yea, it definitely does suck when your family looks at you as some kind of abberant because you haven't followed the pattern that defined their lives. Truth is, I know I'd be a lot happier if I made my decisions based on what I want when it comes to decisions like that, and family, of all people, should be the first ones to respect that. |

No need to worry I might hate you, regardless what your un-posted response was to my vegan description of Thanksgiving aggravations. I like people, even ones who disagree with me! Quote:
