Another One Bites the Dust- Part 2


Here is the continuation of the wedding story. As predicted I was teased right when I entered the church until I left the party. First it was my friends...then up to the Mother Of the Bride. Wedding bashing went as:

• "ticking time bomb yan si...kaw kailan?"- my war bro
• "ikaw ang tagal....bilisan mo na?"- MOB
• "who you with? any boyfriend?"- guy in the party
• "wala kang plus one?"- newly engaged friend
• "next time sana wedding mo na attend namin ha?"- my co-worker
• "bago ako...mauna ka."- single gal with a new bf who is at her early 20's
• "naka 2 na kami o...ikaw kahit 1 wala pa"- mommy with 2 kids
• "baka mauna pa si... kesa sa'yo"- a friend pertaining to a sister of our friend who is in college

I am single but that doesn’t mean I don't have a life. What's up with these people? A person does have an option to get hitched or not. I do enjoy my singlehood and not even thinking of jumping yet. My other friend sympathized with me for he gets a lot of teasing on gatherings as well. Admittedly we do get lonely and also hope for that day when you will say your “I do's". But then people are cut differently...maybe I am not meant for that getting married thing. If it happens then so be it and if it doesn’t then that's life.

I did get proposals before but declined them...I don't and will never get married for the wrong reason. As for the people who have blissfully found their other half...I am happy for you. You are one lucky couple to have found your THE ONE (will write more about this on my coming blogs). Congratulations friend!
