Dear friend, please know that your feelings are completely valid and you are not alone in this struggle. It’s important to remember that your life journey is uniquely yours, and there is no ‘right’ timeline for marriage or parenthood. While societal expectations can feel overwhelming, your happiness and readiness are what truly matter. Take a deep breath and remind yourself that it’s okay to prioritize your personal growth and well-being. When facing family pressure, try to have open and honest conversations about your aspirations and boundaries. Remember, true love from your family will support your choices when they see your genuine happiness. Surround yourself with people who respect your decisions and celebrate your individuality. Trust that when the time is right for you, whether that includes marriage and children or not, it will be a beautiful chapter in your story. You are worthy just as you are, and your path is perfect because it’s uniquely yours.
