Maybe Someday

I had to laugh a little while reading this. My parents and siblings used to do the same thing to me. I'd tell them I was just fine by myself and I wasn't in a hurry to get hitched, especially since I'd parted with my other half that didn't compliment me. I told them to stop trying to marry me off. I was HAPPY!!

Well, the funny thing happened.....my sister's first husband had an affair and left her.....drama! drama! drama! All the attention was now on her. What was she going to do since her husband left her and she had to finish raising her family as a single mother. I'm just sitting over there smiling.....happy!

Well, she found her another man and got married. Boy, oh boy! She picked her another winner. He turned out to be the spoiled, somewhat lazy type. Lives off her mostly, letting her carry the weight of the household with little to no help. My parents had/have rants about that. Well, for me....I'm just sitting over there happy!

My brother and his wife got a divorce. For quite a while there was fighting about finances and children. He has no desire to get hitched again. All this is going on and I'm just sitting over there happy!

So, my parents and others have finally gotten wise. They know that my brother and sister would be better off on their own....just like me. It's not that they don't want to see me with someone, but it's better that if I'm not with someone that really loves me and is there for me that I'm better off by myself.

It's been several years since I've been in a serious relationship and they all know my stand on things. If I can't meet the RIGHT man then I'm staying single and ......happy! There is a whole lot less drama that way. I've been making it just fine on my own.

Now, if I go to function, there is no talk of when am I getting hitched. It's all about how am I doing and what kind of things have been happening for me lately. They had to all learn what I already knew way back then.
