As a single 31-year old woman, I can certainly relate to the sentiment and feeling of being left out. Most of my friends are all getting married, some have children. I do however value being single and making decisions on my own, without justifying anything to someone. Don't get me wrong, having a family is and can be great and I don't discount the idea of being married to someone I love. For now, that path seems to be out of my sight. I choose to see singlehood as a blessing, not a curse but who knows what happens tomorrow. Life is a mystery and full of cliches (i.e. see this post) and I just like to enjoy the ride.
