I'm visiting extended family in Ukraine. And no matter where I go or who I'm with, everyone always asks about the same topic...
Me: "I just graduated from one of the top universities in the U.S."
Them: "Yea, but ... when are you getting married?"
"I'm going to be backpacking through Europe for a few months."
"Ehhh... But do you have a boyfriend??"
"I'll be looking for a full time job when I get back."
"Ok, but are you seeing anyone???"
"I'm looking forward to starting a career soon."
"But what about kids?"
"It's good to see everyone again."
"Have you seen the handsome and available men around here?"
Dear Everyone,
I fully appreciate your concern and suggestions (and nosiness into my personal life). But I'm only 22 and would like to take the time to see the world and start my career before I settle down. But don't worry, I will keep you all updated if situations change. And I definitely won't forget to invite you to the wedding (just as long as you bring lots of gifts).
Love,
Olena
