When will you get married?
"When will you get married??""Who is your current boyfriend??"
"Go get marry soon so you are still young to see your kiddos getting married!"
What???
Those are common questions that my friends asked me while we're gathering. Most of them are married and have children. And in this stage, most of them have 2 children. While, here I am still single.
May be they asked those questions just as an "ice breaking" but if every meet they ask the same question, well it's irritating me. Who doesn't want to get marry? I also want to get marry but my life is different from them.
Firstly, I don't have any candidate to marry with, no close guy, no boyfriend, etc. Second, I m a daughter who help my family. Currently, my family is in bad financial circumstances. I can't even focus on me, I just do my best to help them.
Bunch of problems, will people care? Will my friends help? I don't think so. I m pretty sure they have their own problems. But why they keep asking me such annoying questions over n over??
Because of that, I chose to stop meeting my friends. I only meet one of my closest who really understanding me. She never ask me such questions because she really know my condition.
Enjoy your life and don't bother mine. I am ok with my own life!

People here have no qualms about asking all that i.e when you are you getting married, why have you put on so much of weight, how much is your spouse/son/daughter earning and etc...etc...etc..
As you see, they soon run out of other things to say once they are committed to family. Having kids that one cannot afford is a horrible thing to do to them, and probably the cause of half the misery in the world.
It sounds like you are comfortable where you are, good for you. At least you are not in a rush and pick the wrong guy.
I do even hear it sometimes from the more traditional Irish girls (read: life goal of getting a ring on their finger and kids, no matter who and want to see you as miserable as they are when they figure out that they picked someone unsuitable one in their desperation), but never from my family. They have enough cop-on that being married and getting kids is not a guarantee of a happy marriage or life. It can well be, but you can't force it.
It is hard to evade your family, but you don't need to listen to that stuff from so called "friends" - look to socialist with like minded people.
Wishing you best of luck lady.
Do what feels right for you.
One withering look usually works.
If not, politeness isn't necessary when rudeness is used by them
She never asked again.
I managed to trick Arty into giving up one of his kitchen walls to display my rare finds when I get over there
I also with my wily ways, duped him into painting that wall entirely in another colour for MiMi!!
Gotta go KNenagh, meeting one of the sellers in an hour
Enjoy your weekend
Best of luck finding some nice stuff and have a lovely weekend. I'm going to sew curtains for kiddo's room and not sure how to get them up with my big drill being with someone for repair.
