Well written People now get married to stop people from throwing them pity looks. I had an experience on my last birthday that made me cut off alot of friends. Instead of wishing me happy birthday, they were murmuring "Are u going to spend your birthday alone today,where is your partner, when are you getting married? I was so upset that I quietly blocked all those who sought to ask me such questions laced with mockery. Am a young person who has soo much to offer the world so why would I allow all my achievements be judged by a wedding band. If you are not married within a certain time frame the society terms you as irresponsible despite your other achievements. Plus it's quite annoying that no matter how successful you are as a woman they always want to judge you by the wedding band in your left finger. Well the writter wrote a good piece, people need to stop allowing themselves be bullied into marriages especially when they are not matured or ready for it.
