About my parents, they got married when they were 25, on a whim even. They married after some months of knowing each other and they’re still together. They disagree on things of course but I think they just like each other. My dad used to tell me it wasn’t the fact he loved her that made him marry her so fast, but the fact that he just liked her. They were friends and they knew of all the things in the world that could be against them so to speak, they knew they’d always be for each other. Well they had kids in their 30s, now they’re on the downhill to 60, and on top of that my mom has had cancer for about three years now. So in addition to just wanting someone I could be with, I also want a family of my own and for my parents have enough time to be part of it. Which just adds even more stress
