There are times where I really don't get what is wrong with ticking the singles check box in a form? I'm not married neither do I want to be at this stage in life. I'm happily dating someone although its long distance, but it does have its pros and cons to it. I'm happy being single and independent without depending on any guy. But ask anyone, my mom included, they would tell me its better to have a man to take care of you and bla bla bla... If I want someone to take care of me being a reason to get married, I find that sad. Might as well I look for a maid, I'm pretty sure they can take good care of me as well. I'm looking for a partner not someone to take care of me. I want someone to share my thoughts, my views, my ups and downs, and my future.
Sometimes, its not that wrong to tick the single checkbox. But I've been receiving more than enough invites to be part of some speed dating or dating groups. Do all of us need to put ourselves out there to get someone in our lives? I've seen most couples who suddenly become a "we" and there is no more individuality between the two of them. They seem to have lost who they are. Its pretty sad to me. Does it mean, if at this point in time, I don't have a boyfriend, I would be incomplete and should be looked down upon? Its pretty funny as I've had friends and colleagues alike asking me if they should set me up on blind dates.
Even now that I'm dating someone, it would be when are you getting married. Now this rile me up, is there really a need to get married at 27??? I'm at the happiest moment of my life. I have financial independence, free, ability to do anything. Yet, I'm being asked to settle down with another person and try to work things out. For now, thank you very much, but I'm actually happy with how the way things are now. Settling down? Not now my dear. I've still got loads to do before I can be another guy's equal.
