Isn't it ironic when you learn or heard something about your ex, telling you that he is getting married? In my case, I have my reasons why I am not marrying, though I can say I wanted to and found the man. But, what is keeping me to stay single is because of a dream to have my Attorney title before my full name. I wanted to put the credit to those who put me reached my dreams. No offense meant to my future husband. lol

Yeah, it's really ironic. I just heard my 'ex' got married this year, he even told me. *LOL* Anyways, I can only say 'to each, his or her own'. No one could dictate our lives and goals other than us. We have reasons and those reasons are valid because it's our life. It's good you have a goal in life. And I believe that if a person really loves you, he would wait. Unless of course you have become quite unreasonable. There's a proper time and moment but we must also understand that there will always be two sides of the coin. A present decision has effects, and before we do decide, we must remember we could not have it all. =) Good luck to law school. I have always wanted to pursue that, but I think there are far too many lawyers in our country. *LOL* So I pursued Masters instead. Reach for your goals! =)

I don't know if it is allowed in your country but I know in the western world many women keep their maisen anme, some allthe time and some just for their business connections, as far as being married a lotfemales are chosing to pass on that as well, independence is a wonderful thin, sometimes one feels they may have missed out but it only takes a visit to a married couple and it is so nice to get back home...good luck to you with your attorney title....

I feel that every one has their own time table when it comes to marriage. I got married when I was twenty.. and now its been four years... Yet, what is good for one, may not be good for the other. So in my estimation, I think its wise for you to first attain the goals that you have place in front of you. Then once that is finished, you can move on to cultivating a family, with the help of that future husband...
