Stop asking why I am not married!!!

I never thought I would write something about marriage. Am I frustrated because I’ve been single way too long?? Am I tired of others asking me why I am single? but this silly thought occurred yesterday when I called one of my school friend Dipti to wish her on her birthday & she asked Why I am not married. I simply replied her ‘ hey I am happily single;. Well it’s not only dipti asking me this question I think its everybody all my friends, my relatives even my office colleagues ask me this question. Earlier I used to smile n say yeah I will get married one fine day…
but these days I Can’t stand when people ask me why I’m not married! It’s not that I wouldn’t mind being married but the right time has not come yet. It’s rude and annoying sometimes it’s like asking a person why they’re overweight or why they’re not having kids. Silly, stupid question…..I say
There are 2-3 married friends who say they got married too young and tell me to take as long as I need to before deciding to marry someone. But for the most part, I get strange looks and twisted faces regarding my marital status and my seeming lack of enthusiasm to rush to change it. This is especially more common question now because I will turn 27 on my next birthday. I guess they feel my biological clock should be defining my life rather than my mind.
My best female friend is married 2 years back, she settled for security. I want more than that. I know its not all rainbows and butterflies but I always want to have passion in my life; I will marry the man I consider to be my best friend or the person I love
So all my dear n near friends, my relatives & my colleagues please stop asking me why I am not married. I will certainly get married When I feel the time is right, I will marry. Until then, I will continue to be happily single. :-)
