I feel like I'm in this weird place in life. There's people WAY younger than me getting married AND having kids (on purpose!) and I'm just like WAIT!? Hold up... I'm still young too right?! This can't be happening!<br />Plus the fact my LITTLE sister (who is only 20) is getting married in August... I'm feeling a WHOLE lot more pressure now. And at times I catch myself feeling a little suffocated about where I am in life- I'm graduated from college, I'm in my CAREER... surely the next step is marriage right?! But then I have moments of seriously loving being on my own, being single, having the freedom to do whatever I want, BUY whatever I want (within my means of course ;) and not having someone else to have to check in with, ya know? <br />I'm the same, never been the girl that HAD to be with someone. I totally have those friends- the ones that ALWAYS have a boyfriend or someone that is interested in them/they're interested in... and that's never been me!<br /><br />And I love your blog and love your content- you're always completely honest and I love that about you!!<br />xoBriannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09340092560691780217noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1735467110152915555.post-51854722114954585142013-05-26T00:10:11.737-04:002013-05-26T00:10:11.737-04:00I am not single but I also I am not married.

I digress, why it doesn't surprise me is because we (all these ladies in their mid 20s who do not form part of the majority of society) need one hell of a back bone and huge voice to be able to stand up on our own in crowd full of couples (or groups). I swear my parents are concerned there is something wrong with me for not being more paniked that I am alone but the truth is if it was meant to be, it would be. I keep telling them when it's right, I will have all those things and I don't know if I would blig about all of them but I like to think there is more to me than that and that won't dissappear after marriage and a babies.. I have been having problems accessing my blog server BUT I would have had my rant about the exact same thing!<br /><br />Thanks for having a voice :)Nats ~Coral Tinted Perceptionshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04176952796396931623noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1735467110152915555.post-31449563750380067102013-05-22T23:43:36.316-04:002013-05-22T23:43:36.316-04:00this is why your blog rocks!

I completely feel what you are saying, so many of the girls (wonderful girls at that) are married and/or have babies and I just can't relate a lot of the time. Although I love my married friends, being single is a blessing in it's own way and I want to enjoy this sweet season and not get caught up in feeling like I need to be married.

I am married and we do have a...I feel the same way. I am married and we do have a house but we're not always remodeling it and it is definitely not up to "blogging" standards by any means. And I have felt the need to step back from even reading certain blogs as of lately due to so much pressure for the newest outfit, beauty product or gadget. Husband and I got rid of cable a couple of years ago because of all of the commercials and the cost for something we didn't put much value on. And I hate to be made to feel like the content in my blog isn't of value if i'm not meeting the standards of other bloggers (even though that certainly shouldn't be what blogging is all about)<br /><br />but no, i do not want to keep up with the joneses - not next door, not the blog ones and not any others that make me feel inadequate in my life i live.<br /><br />and as far as you being single, my best friend is single and living life. she is following her dreams of social work and not having to answer to anyone. i'm married (over 3 years now) and children arent even on the horizon - and in my neck of the woods, we are so weird and "oh my gosh why dont you have any children yet" and i was even told "it's okay sweet heart, God loves barren women too" but last time i checked i wasn't, it was just a choice to not have children. <br /><br />so even though our situations are slightly different, i can completely relate.

I write about anything and everything. I just lost my best friend/man I was sure I was going to married to death by suicide a little over a year ago, so I write about grief, too. Although, I just like to be authentic on my blog. So, if I am happy, sad, mad, left out...it's all there. I find yours to be the same way.

I have cards with balances, but I never use them and haven't in a year. I'm paying them off!<br /><br />I've never bought anything from J Crew and everything I own from there came from Goodwill.

I totally get how you feel. I didn't get married until a little later (only a year ago). I don't have kids yet and a lot of times I feel so out of place because I am not the "norm" in the blogging world. It honestly blows my mind how people afford the things they do or buy. I find myself looking at my life and thinking "What am I doing wrong?" But then I remember that I am happy with my simple little life ... So keep being you!

Not that I don't love to look at pretty clothes, but sometimes that stuff is unrealistic and I can't keep up ha! I have quit writing about all of that type stuff, as well, for the most part. I started my blog to be more of an online scrap book and I have gone back to that. When I look back one day, I will much rather see all of my life events than what mascara I used in May of 2013.
