It’s like they all made some sort of secret pact to simultaneously walk down the aisle. When the high school sweethearts got engaged, I was not surprised- they had already begun exchanging vows in the sandbox and everyone was expecting to receive an invite any day now. When the old-fashioned friends – the ones who must be married before they’re 30 – decided to get hitched, I was not worried either because they always treated being single like a ticking bomb.

However, I did freak out when I was invited to see notorious Lotharios put a ring on it. Suddenly, I felt like I was destined to join the eternally single gals club. If there is one group that has been consistently looked down upon over the years, it’s that one. The thought of ending my days as an old maid only crossed my mind for a second because I do enjoy being single. With time, I decided to accept the fact that I am taking my time because it is better to wait than rush into things. After all, it`s not a race to the altar.

Do you think people should be married by a certain age?
