My parents were similar with me.
I'll be 30 in just 4 months and my mother was pushing me like mad to "give her grand-babies" b/c my 1/2 brother likes boys so THAT won't happen with him. lol
Theeeeeen I broke the news to the family that I 'got fixed' to avoid those grand-babies. Surprisingly almost everyone was in my favor once we voiced our very valid reasons why we don't want children, but everyone in my family said I'd be a great mother otherwise.

Times have changed so much. In the old days in order to 'make it', you needed to be married young, big families, strong ties. Now people are living longer, women are CEO's, and success is more important than family and marriages

I whole heartedly agree with this statement.

I know the feeling there.
Eesh fixed already? That's a big decision! Everyone has their reasons, no need to elaborate.
I still really appreciate strong family values, and people who marry young (who are truly in love), and stay married. I have friends who married young (some at 18), who are still married and very much in love. It's always good to see that, considering our parents paved the way for the divorce craze.

Yessir. As Alex knows the gory details, it was awful at first, but man I'm so much happier now!

Everyone I know who married young are divorced, or extremely unhappy. A couple we're friends with have been together since like the 5th grade - I sh*t you not. They got married 2 years ago and they're in their mid 20s now. While they say they're happy as hell and are now expecting their first child, every time we're around them they call each other the most horrible names, say mean things, and treat each other like sh*t.
I just don't understand couples that fight. My partner and I have had TWO pressing arguments the entire time we've been together. We never say mean things, and we always try to stay as calm as possible and talk it all out. We both have short fuses though, so we know to leave each other alone until we're cooled down first.
Everyone is seriously in awe of how happy we always are. I dunno what it is, but this is how I saw my own parents too.

I forgot about that!

And yeah my boyfriend and I have yelled at each other to calm down when we're stressing and freaking out, but never at each other. We help each other a lot and talk through our conflicts. It's really refreshing.

It really puts other things in perspective, once you've found someone you don't fight with, and you can work through anything and still have a fantastic, loving time. It's pretty empowering to me, knowing I'm part of a happy, very commited "team".

He's 6'3" - 6'4" :D
GAH! So jelly. I've gotten used to Rob being 5.7, but sometimes I wish he towered over me. I'm just NOW getting comfy wearing my heels and being taller than him with them on.

It's so bizarre wearing my biggest heels with Matt and we see eye to eye.

I'm low on gas, didn't feel like turning it on. And my front window was fogged up, heat blows it away.

Maybe you shouldn't drive so much if you can't afford to run the a/c and keep gas in a civic...
I mean, it's $40 tops when filling up!
Or try the ghetto way and crack the windows..?
:lol:
