EXACLTY. I think that there's nothing
wrong with someone who is 23 or even 18 getting married if they truly have found their "one" that they want to marry, but how often does that happen? We are finally able to go/spend/study/move where we please. I can't imagine more than a handful of people who have just started to taste independence in the last 5 years being ready to give that up for someone else, yet about 60% of my class seems married or engaged and our av. age is 24. I'm very happy for those who are happy, but so sad for those who did it just to be able to have a wedding. I find that girls my age are often excited and prepared for a wedding, not a marriage.
Anyway, I wouldn't say I'm lonely and depressed; it's not quite that dire. I just want some male company. Someone to come over and watch a movie on the couch with, maybe call me sometime or go to Dave and Buster's with. SOMEBODY PAY ATTENTION TO ME!!! lol I'm not looking right now, but it's taking all of my self-control not to be.
