Remember when you were 17 and you were a senior in high school and you were talking with all your senior girlfriends in the quad and you say the following statement, "I'm going to be married when I'm 25 and have my first baby at 27. I'll have a boy first so he can take of his little sister who I'll have when I'm 29. Aww!"
Fast forward 11 years. By the timeline I created for myself, Mr. Right should be at work, our "son" should be in preschool, and I should be thinking about getting knocked up again. The thought of this makes me want to vomit. Don't get me wrong marriage and a family is what most little girls dream of, but what do you do when this doesn't happen. Do you drive to the ol' golden gate and jump off, or do you make the best of it and keep the dream alive. As much as I would love to be the next star of The Bridge, I'll take the latter.
Some people are settling down, some people are settling, and some won't settle for anything less than perfect.
