Reasons Why I Can't Get Married Yet

Reasons why I can't get married yet

To my family, my friends and my beloved society that thinks I'm a poor woman who still hasn't been able to get married yet... They told me, they warned me 3 years ago! "Don't go to Korea now! Find a husband before! If you leave now while you're single, it's gonna be too late! By the time you are back, everyone will be taken!"

WELL GUESS WHAT???? I found guys outside of Tunisia too you know!!!! :o :o :o 

PLUS, here! Read this! Reasons why I don't want to get married now! Read it, memorize it, then leave me alone! 

1- I am still young. At east, I still "FEEL" young! Maybe my real age is 25 and I'm a "quarter of a century old", but in my brain I'm still 20 or less, so I still can't cope up with the idea of getting married.

2- I hate divorce. It's expensive, it's too much trouble, and once you have kids, it becomes even worse. So getting married means spending my whole life with one person. I personally haven't met someone I would wake up and see his face everyday until the end of times yet. Imagine I hurry up, get married to please my family and the society, then realize I picked the wrong guy. I'd be doomed for life!

3- I have too many guy friends, and this had me have some troubles with some of my ex boyfriends before, because they tend to get jealous and stuff. Thing is, my friends are too important for me to choose a boyfriend over them, so when my lovely boyfriend puts me in a situation of choice, he won't like it. I don't want to imagine this situation with a husband.

4- I love my family name! I don't want to have to change it! I need to find a guy with a family name that sounds good when pronounced after my full name!

5- I love to dance Batchata, I get so much into it that I would be spiritually cheating on my husband each time I'm dancing batchata. Plus, I love to change partners, so even if my husband is the best Batchata dancer on earth, I would always want to dance with other guys, therefore spiritually cheating on beloved husband.

6- I have other priorities in life to achieve while still single. I want to travel around the world sometimes alone sometimes with friends. I don't want to have to carry my official relationship with me. How am I supposed to flirt here and there with the locals if I have my husband next to me 24/7? Also, there are many stupid things I want to do before becoming a married boring responsible wife! 

7- I have very bad mood swings and sometimes I don't want to do anything and I don't want anyone to be talking to me. Imagine this situation lasting for several days, what will my husband do? So until I figure out how to fix this, I'm not getting married. 

8- I come from an Arab family, and Arab weddings last for 4-5 days sometimes and they are extremely exhausting. Also, the number of people who get invited to weddings is so unbelievably huge that when I was around 10-11, in my mother's home town, my cousin and I used to dress up and get ready at night then go to 3 or 4 different weddings, uninvited, just like that. We eat some food and get some drinks, maybe dance a bit then get to the next ceremony, and no one would ever notice! If I'm getting married, I want a one night small ceremony, end of the conversation. But go and convince your Arab family...

9- When I was 12 or 13 I started sleeping in a double bed, that has been my own bed, in my own room, that no one enters. So I'm used to sleeping alone right in the middle of the bed with empty space still everywhere around me. So now, I don't feel very comfortable sharing my bed or my blanket. I might have had some friends or cousins sleeping over, but they only stayed for couple nights, not forever! How am I supposed to have someone sharing my bed if I sleep in the middle of the freaking bed?

10- Last but not least, I can't get married yet because I still don't want to! I don't care if my friends from high school are engaged or have kids, they are the hare, I'm the tortoise. And remember your childhood stories guys, who won the race? OH YEAH the tortoise!

So here it is Mom!! Reasons why I don't want to get married yet. Time is flying? TIC TOC TIC TOC? I don't care, I want to enjoy being "Sexy, Free and Single" (reference to one of Super Junior's albums, Korean band, if you don't know them) while I still can.

But I will get married someday. First I have to achieve everything that I want to achieve while single AND find the one person I want to share more than a bed with FOREVER...

You agree? You no agree? You like? You no like? 

Let me know! I'm sure I'm not the only one thinking this way!!!
