I am single, my 2 other siblings are married already now, relatives and friends are asking me when I will be next in line for marraige. What's up with that? Can't they just mind their own #@$^%#!!! business? Its a personal question and not all people are comfortable answering it.

Well, others are just curious. You can't exactly blame them for asking. You might as well say something like I can't predict the future or I don't know, when do you want me to get married?

Its strange to ask someone who does not have any bf in the first place when I will get married. I don't ask people that question since I do not wish that to be asked of me. I just wish people just stay quiet and wait for an invite. If th information was not shared to them, they should not meddle on it. Its really none of their business really :)

People use to ask my husband and that all the time when we were going together. I had gone together and lived together for almost six years before we finally got married. When we were asked, we would usually respond with not many people would know because when we decided to get married, we would just go to the magistrate and do it. That is exactly what we did. Not many people knew when we went to get married. Basically it was just our parents and our best friends. We have now been married 24 years.

Some people asking me about married to. Even though we're rather late (in my relatives, I'm really late for the age of marrying), I think it doesn't really matter when you or I'll get married. Marrying someone is not a simple thing. I hope your relatives and friends stop questioning it.
