Is that mandatory to get married? I am 30 years old and at the moment, I don't want to be in a relationship. I do enjoy my current single life but it seems like this is a very bad lifestyle in my country, My acquaintances keep urging me to get married. They criticized me for a selffish way of thinking. Everyday! I am so sick of it. I told my mom that I was not anti-marragie, but I would only get married when I was ready: when I found my Mr. Right and I have a stable financial ability to ensure my children have a good life. I'd rather not get married than have to choose a man as husband at any cost. That's my thought. My relatives, my neighbors, my collegues... let them judge me as they want. I don't care! I don't live my life just to please others. However I do care about my parents' feeling. They're very upset with me and I cannot stand their tears. I know that they just want all the best for me. They're afraid that when I get old, I will be very lonely and there will be no place for me to rely on. I don't know if I will regret this decision in the future, but I know if I don't listen to my heart at the moment, I will feel unhappy right away. I wish mom and dad could understand me and accept my opinion. Coz they are the world to me.
