In the past year, I have felt a tremendous amount of pressure from those around me to find a guy. My sister and best friend have tried setting me up w/ ppl. My mom keeps asking if I'm seeing anyone. When discussing my weekend plans w/ my former boss, she responded, "Oh that sounds like fun. You might meet someone there too."
To make things worse, I'm in law school and nearly 75% of the student body is married or has a significant other. Three friends have been married this year and I still have two more weddings coming up. At the law firm that I work at, there are only four unmarried ppl.
I'm almost 23, but I'm already starting to feel as if I'm an old maid. I'd love to meet the right guy, but I know instinctively that the odds are against me. (Over 20% of female attys over 40 have NEVER been married). I'm not looking for compliments or responses suggesting I'll find the right person sooner or later. I just want to know how to cope w/ the pressure. It's really getting to me.
