Biked during lunch.
In an hour, I'll turn 31 years old. It's weird. I just thought my life at 31 would be so different. I am very happy. I have a lot of friends, live in a great place, have a great career, I'm fitter than I've ever been, love my biking and running and I feel lucky every day for all my blessings.
Yet of course, I expected that by now I would've found my significant other... have kids... you know, that's what's expected of a girl. So although I am by no means desperate and I'm not one of those girls who can't be alone and feels that she needs a man in her life, I can't help but feel like something is missing, or that my life will be even better if I could share some special things with someone.
What would you tell your girls if they were single (or in my case, divorced) by the age of 31? Would you worry? Would you think there's something "wrong" in their lives? Or would be OK with it and just think maybe love will come later? Or that some people are alone and that's ok - In my family we had a few aunts that never married, or even dated really. Maybe it's not for everyone... Maybe I'm just supposed to be a good friend, a good daughter, a good aunt, a good sister, a good economist, but not a girlfriend/wife/mom. What do you think?
I'm watching Gremlins, one of my very favorite ones! Burt/Walter/Kungfublonde, any favorite quotes from it? |
