"So when are you planning to settle down?"
"I am settled"
"No, not like this, when are you planning to settled down in life?"
"Not sure what you mean by settled down in life? What makes you think that I am not settled?"
"I have a career, I have friends, family, an apartment, no pets, some bank balance - what more is needed to feel settled in life?"
"Well, all this is not enough. You need to have a husband and a family of your own to be settled in life?"
"So whatever I have does not matter? My parents are not my family, my career and education is not important and the feeling of being settled is contingent on a MAN!!"
Perplexed and confused.
Patronizing explaination follows.
"It does, but only after you have a family of your own. Your parents are not going to be around for ever. You will not be able to derive the satisfaction that people get from a husband and family only from your career. You have not experienced your womanhood completely yet. To be a complete woman, you need to have the experience of childbirth and motherhood."
"Reallllllyyyyy????"

Hi,Wandy...nice new site...hope to see regular posts from u here...a big grin at the questions from 'patronizing people of the previous generation'.I guess they could leave even a settled person, somewhat 'unsettled'.Good luck at warding off such queries in future,with a simple' Someday'.U know what I think?People who ask such questions feel jealous of the bachelorettes.Cheers.:)
Second AmitL...
People who insist on bein such 'wellwishers' r plain jealous-failed & unsatisfied with their own megre,petty lives-vich is why, i'v noticed tht they seem to devote their lives to being 'concerned' fr others!*hmfffffff*
Ven they r unhappy perhaps they cant stand it ven u seem to b doin fine! *gah*
Pay no head to such losers A.
Education,career,home,parents,siblings,friends,ur interests cn last u a lifetime. Other 'social successions (*rolls her eyes*)' wud happen ven they r meant to.
Lots of luv n hugs...S m i l e
