And also I’m not sure if marrying is the right choice, I mean if you marry someone just not to be alone when you’ll be old, it won’t be a good marriage. It’s not like you can marry anyone...
Marriage is basically a construct, I feel like a lot of parents/grandparents don’t understand that yet, it’s sad bc they brainwash us to think that we’ll be unhappy without a husband/wife but I’m sure I could easily live my best life without marrying
yeah i was hoping it would stop. this is usually what happens in asia and i'm telling you its normal. relatives, parents and even grandparents are pretty much nosy about our life and will be even talked about during reunions or occassions :((
Thanks, guys for understanding my sentiments. I was raised in a more liberated way but there are still relatives and family friends who get nosy about this to the point where my mom calls them out when they are being to much. I'm lucky tho because she's understanding. I still feel for those who have parents/grandparents are like gramps in this story.
...can you folks stop pressuring the young generation to marry? For some, it's an important part of their lives. For others, it's not even a priority. Like band-aid being used to mend a void. Fyi, it's our choice.
This is one of the reasons why our non-binary friends are having a hard time coming out of their closets.
