i couldn't comprehend why people around me always bugs me into marrying... that's really sounds annoying at times. I am 29 years old and i know i am not getting any younger but i am not yet ready for such long term relationship. It scares me more in marrying when they did that. Besides i just got out from a relationship and i don't intend to just pick another guy around for that matter. I believe its a sacred thing and i intend to take my time and wait for the right man and right time to settle.

I'm not quite sure why people decide to pressure others into life changes that they aren't ready for. Some people just don't know how to quit and would rather stick their noses in places it doesn't belong. Just ignore them and do what's right for your life. No one can tell you what to do besides yourself.

At right time, right person at right place. Marriage is not a joke and one should not hurry things if not feeling comfortable. You can take your own time, no matter what others are saying. They are not going to live your life or rather, you shouldn't let others to live your life. Well, it's just my opinion :)

I think you're really cool, deciding to wait until the time is right. If there were more people like you out there, there wouldn't be such a high divorce rate.
