You Know You're Getting Old When...

... your friends start having babies on purpose.

And getting engaged.

And getting married.

And moving in together.

And planning weddings.

And beginning careers.

And being done with uni.

And having boyfriends...

Ugh.  I know I shouldn't compare myself to others because it never ends well, but its like, they're all engaged, or in long term relationships, doing all or some of the above, and I am happy for them, I really am. 

But here I am, sitting at home, with 3 cats.  #foreveralone much?  (I'm sorry, I promise I'll never use a hashtag again on blogspot... it's just heinous, but you can't write that phrase without a hashtag... it's just not right).  Single for 2 years.  Not that I neeeeed a man.  But it would be nice sometimes you know?  To stop showing up to things alone.

Sometimes I feel like I'm emotionally stunted or something.  Like there is some big conspiracy about relationships that everyone else gets, but it just baffles me.  I feel like Sheldon haha!  (Big Bang Theory reference... sorry if you're not a fan). 

I get some comfort in the fact that Taylor Swift is the same age as me and also hasn't settled down yet... but at least she's had relationships haha!  What else would she write her music about!? :P

Sigh.  I hope something will happen one day.
