Love: Forever Alone

Forever Alone

By Lisa - 19/08/2018 23:30

Today, at my younger sister's wedding, my hospitalised grandmother called to ask if I have a boyfriend yet, both my parents wondered if I'll ever get married, and when the 13-year-old next to me caught the bouquet, his father yelled from the back to give it to me instead. FML

Today, I announced my engagement. My mother's response was to freak out and demand that I postpone my wedding indefinitely. Why? My younger sister caught the bouquet at a wedding last year, so "she has to get married first!" My sister has been single for 3 years and showers once a week. FML

Today, at my sister's wedding, she and I had a plan that she would purposely throw the bouquet to my girlfriend, then I would propose in front of everyone. When the bouquet landed in my girlfriend's lap, she screamed, "Ew, no way" and threw it to someone else. FML

Today, my boyfriend's mum yelled at me for, "nagging Stephen to get married when he isn't ready." I mentioned marriage once. At my sister's wedding. When prompted by my grandmother. FML

Today, at my aunt's wedding, the time for the tossing of the bouquet came and the announcer asked for all the single ladies to gather behind the bride. I was the only one. FML

Crazy chick

Today, at my sister's wedding, I went to the very back of the crowd of women waiting to catch the bouquet. Not only did I end up catching it, I was accosted by a crazy chick who ripped it out of my hands, screaming at me in Italian. I later found out she was already engaged. FML

Today, my grandma wasn't feeling well, so I went to her house to check on her. After about 20 minutes, I knew she was feeling better when she looked at me and said, "So, do you have a boyfriend yet? I pray every night that I get to live long enough to see you with a boyfriend." FML

I don't understand why women are expected to get a boyfriend or have kids..... just like men aren't expected to.

No I’m a guy and my parents are asking exactly the same questions.

Male here. Get this question all the time. I take it as just another topic of a conversation, especially if they don’t know me. I respectfully tell them I’m not dating and then politely change the subject to my studies etc. No major fuss. If they’re really pushy, I’ll either find a way out of the conversation or explain that it’s not a top-priority in my life at the moment.

As a man I myself I have heard that question to many times. It's just so annoying when the ask, when are you getting a girlfriend? If it was that easy for me I would already have one by now.

I don't know that we're not expected to, but it's significantly more challenging to find someone as a guy either way unless you're among the exceptionally attractive top 10%.
