Everyone around me is getting married!

This is what infuriates me about the big "marriage" push by our current political administration. Women already feel a HUGE societal pressure to hurry up and get married. I think this is why the divorce rate is so high. When you meet a person who is right for you, and you take the time to make sure he is right, then you get married. We shouldn't feel pressured by society, family or our "biological clock" to hurry up and get hitched.

Co-sign. Getting married because you feel pressure, or because everyone else is is the WRONG reason to get married, and chances are you'll be setting yourself up for failure. Of all my girlfriends, only two got married very early. The rest of us all got married in our mid- to late-30s.
