random rambling...


a few weeks ago one of my pretty good friends asked me the most surprising question. she asked "do you want to get married?" i was pretty shocked. i feel like i talk about it often enough that everyone around me would know i want to be married and have kids. it made me think...
just because i am happy doesn't mean i don't want to get married
just because i travel doesn't mean i don't want to get married
just because i have a career doesn't mean i don't want to get married
just because i don't do online dating doesn't mean i don't want to get married
just because i have fun doesn't mean i don't want to get married
you get the idea. yes, sometimes i am sad and lonely, but most of the time my life is pretty great. i have wonderful family and friends. i get to travel.  i have responsibilities like everyone else, but i can generally do what i want to do. i have a lot of freedom and flexibility, and i am really happy with my life. BUT, i would give all that up for a husband and a family. to my friend and anyone else who might be wondering...
yes i want to get married
no i have never tried online
no i have no idea how i am supposed to meet someone
yes i happily go on blind dates
no i'm not going to sit around and be miserable hoping that my husband magically appears
yes i am going to live my life and be happy about it right now

come back tomorrow for the final blogging the bach for this season and wednesday for what would you do..." with a yard of fabric.

  1. I like this post. I think my younger sister is in the same position. She's really happy and making things happen for herself, but that doesn't mean she doesn't want to get married.
