What makes so many women so fixated on marriage? Even when I was in the 6th grade I remember thinking I wasn't going to get married until I was at least 30. I wanted to see the world, etc. It seemed like the least important part of adult life. I could never understand women who were focused on that.

I hate how even as a young girl, I viewed my self worth as tied to male interest and approval. It’s depressing that most men don’t care about me outside of what I can provide them, and when I stop providing (physically, emotionally) they stop caring. I’m looking forward to living my life for myself and doing things because they will make ME fulfilled. Letting go of the woman I feel like I’m supposed to be and embracing myself as a person with interests, intellect, and worth outside of my relationships with men.

Education is key. Abs work experience. Protip, y’all looking for a graduate degree? Work for 2-3 years after your bachelors, where your crap pay matches your debt. Then get a job that pays for your masters. I went straight from my bachelors to my masters, got a massive case of burnout and loans, then I had too much education for too little experience. Work smarter not harder!

Let men be the ones to strive to marry, they’re the only ones to benefit from rushing women into marriage. Women should wait as much as they want.

I love this!! 23 is so young, and I wish more women didn’t feel tied down to societal expectations 😭

I’m still doing this at 37 and every time I wish it wasn’t so “empty” feeing, I remember the men I’ve dated and the boyfriends I’ve had compared to the volume of travel, professional accomplishments, network of friends, and loving family I have. While the world may feel (and be) unfair at times, I’m absolutely living my best life.

I wish my 20 year old self saw this. I’m currently 23 who dated an LVM for 3 years. Here’s to leveling up without a man 💃

Okay? And stop trying to play wife. That shit ain’t cute. Start making dollhouses as a hobby if you wanna play house with these dusties.

As I turn 23 this year, I needed to hear this! My finances are excellent and I’m going after my dream career. I’m very happy to be single!

Have you noticed how people who idealised marriage as the best thing you can ever do also call their own pre married life 'the best years of their life'
