Oh Weddings

So my BFF is getting married next weekend. I'm thrilled for her. I'm at that point of my 30's where basically all my friends are married, getting married or have been married for a while. 

I am not married.

I've been engaged 3 times.

My grandmother is convinced that I'm never getting married. 

I'm totally happy. Actually, I can't pinpoint a point in my adult life that I was ever happier or more content than I am at this moment. I love who I am. I'm happy with the person I've become. My friends are incredible. I never feel alone. 

Do I want to be married?   Yes. I think so. 

Will the world crash and end if I never do? Nope.

Do I want children? Yes. I am sure of this.

Do I need to be married for this to happen? Nope. 

While I am certain I would have fit in perfectly in another time period, the 50's for sock hops or the 20's for the style...I'm certain that I'm happy that in 2013 I do not have to be married to live my dreams.
