Question - (10 October 2005) 2 Answers - (Newest, 10 October 2005)
A male , anonymous writes:

HELLO. I'm 22, hard working and self employed, ie I'm doing well. I am interested to find a partner, but I feel that I'm not ready, in fact, I'm not interested. I'm happy with the way that I am, single.

My parents are making me feel as though I'm wasting time, and I must find a girl. I've told them that I'm in no rush, and that I'm not gonna be pushed into anything. Marriage is not even in my thoughts. Most of my friends have partners, but I don't feel the need, maybe when we're out as a group I wonder about it, but it passes quickly.

Is there anything wrong with me? I'm just not looking, and I'm not even thinking of it.

Are you still living at home? Maybe they are suggesting that you move out and get your own place, so they can finally be alone together ! There is nothing wrong with you. Many people are not ready for marriage, or even a serious relationship until they are much older than you. And people experience unnecessary disasters all the time when they marry too young. Take your time. Get comfortable, or more comfortable with who you are. You will meet the woman of your dreams when you least expect it.
