Just needed to vent.
Mom: I realize that many (ok, most) of your friends have son-in-laws and grandchildren.
I understand it is awkard at the Shop and Stop when someone you know shoves a camera phone pic of a neonate in your face and you don't have one to show. I can understand that you want me to be happy. It hurts when you insuinate that I am some kind of mutant freak that can't mate properly because you have no in-laws or grandkids.
I didn't expect to be 32 and have no kids or husband either. It is what it is. I want to be as happy as the next woman, and if there is no child or husband in my cards, I am ok with that. I can be single and happy right now, or get wifed up to appease you and be miserable and the subject of a Lifetime movie.
When I told Barbie and Ken were sold seperately for a reason at 7 years old, maybe that was a sign??
Why can't you be ok with it too? How about being happy that I am a physician, or that I have use of my faculties and all four limbs, that I am in my right mind, that I save lives, pay my own bills and my credit score is above 700?!?!
It will happen for me when it is supposed to happen. I am doing my part, losing weight, changing up the wig, putting myself out there more, etc... So, unless kidnapping dudes is no longer a felony, STOP REMINDING ME YOU HAVE NO SON-IN-LAW OR GRANDCHILDREN! I will find the right dude, marry (if I CHOOSE to), and you can have a grandkid THEN! Otherwise, back off! And no, your godson who just got of jail is NOT in the running, so kill that one now.
Thank you.
