Love and Marriage

Today I was talking with an old friend and she was chatting about people she knew who were getting married, she is of that age with those friends and like them she too is in a long-term relationship. Meanwhile I think... 'why? been there done that, wasn't too flash'

while part of me would like to be happily married, and I'd like to be in love... the effort involved is a little more than I'm currently prepared to make. although this is probably due to the fact that I have no one to make this effort with.
I definitely can't be a stay at home mum, in fact if any man who wants to be with me, wants kids, they are going to have to take the parental leave themselves. While being a parent definitely has it's great times, there are other times, where I don't know how I cope... still, I keep making it up and people keep living. I guess that is the goal - get children to adulthood with few permanent injuries and able to make some contribution to society.
