Wedding cake-in-the-middle-of-the Road

What a strange post from me indeed!

I have passed the time of my 13^th, 16^th, 18^th and 21^st birthdays, along with all my friends.  I find myself entering the time of engagement parties and weddings.  How on earth did time fly by so quickly?!

During earlier times it was the norm to get married in your early twenties.  Nowadays I think young adults getting married so soon is absolutely insane, followed by a mess of wedding cake in the middle of the road.  I saw my fair share of friends getting married too young and the problems that occurred within these relationships.  Please understand me correctly … I am not against young adults tying the knot so soon, but I doubt if all are actually mature enough to handle the responsibilities that goes along with being a married couple.  Personally I think this leads too many divorces.

I am in a long-term relationship and find many people asking me the following question, “So, when are you planning on getting married?”  My usual answer, “I am still too little to get married”.  I feel like screaming whenever people ask me this!  Don’t rush things … it all will happen on the exact right time of my life.

I seem harsh in what I mentioned above, but my motto … “Rather save than sorry”.  Yes, I dream of my own, beautiful, extravagant wedding and spending the rest of my life with the one I so deeply cherish and love, but give us time.  At the moment our careers are very important to us and we haven’t even finished studying yet.  Both of us feel that we want all of this extra worry out of the way, so we can thoroughly enjoy our life together.

Rather a wedding cake that everyone enjoys, than a wedding cake in the middle of the road.
