All My Single Ladies.

The recent influx is engagement/wedding albums is making me absolutely sick with jealousy. I understand that its about that time where people start finding the one and getting all comfortable and cozy with them...but the fact of the matter is that I am not cozy or comfortable and people's happiness makes me angry.
haha.
Its true, its the curse of the single girl we simply cannot be completely happy for other couples. We want to desperately but anytime a girl is getting married or engaged the spotlight shifts from her to one of us. Everyone wonders "when is that girl going to get hitched? She cant possible be single forever...Whats so important about her career?"

So I am currently reading this book called, The New Single Woman by, Ellen Kay Trimberger. I like it. Its very informative. According to the book women in there early twenties and thirties that are single are OK. BUT a woman thirty five and older and single is a weirdo.

The trick though, is that those women who are single and young should not be ok with this fact, they must be in a never ending search to find the one. NO not the perfume by Dolce and Gabbana but the one, the soulmate.

A 2001 National Poll by Gallup found that 94% of single women and men between the ages of 25 to 29 were seeking a soulmate to marry and 87% were confident they'd find one.

Now, I wont lie I am one of those 87%...
