Everyone is right that said don't worry about it, take your time it will happen when it happens, don't look for it etc. But I totally see where you are coming from. I am considered hot by guys and girls. I am nice, fun etc. I have been proposed to (more than once) but I have never been married. I am 35 now, my friends all got married and tried to force me into it. They told me I was too picky etc. But they are all divorced now, some twice divorced. I have never been divorced because I have never been married. I have been close, but now I am happy that I never did get married because I am not with the people anymore that I would have married...does that make sense? You just need to do what you are comfortable doing and be with who you want to be with. If you don't feel it's right to get married to the person you are with you are probably right. There is nothing wrong with being single at 29...I know lots of people who are. Just chill and have fun. Don't sit around waiting for a girlfriend, that's the perfect way to stay single. Just have fun and be confident and the girls will be attracted to you, then you can take your pick. And after your friends are all married they will be totally jealous that you are single. They will all live vicariously through you. Bottom line is don't worry about it. It'll happen when it happens! Good luck!

It sounds like the two of you will have made up your minds, and i'd say do as you like. Her moms and dads are mostly just seeking to look out for her excellent pursuits. I received married too younger the first time, and am now happily married for the second time (for 6 years). I don't feel that my first marriage harmed me in anyway. Might be it'll figure out, and probably it won't, however it'll be a lifestyles expertise either method. Ensure that you have a financial agreement in situation, and hinder having any youngsters for a couple of years. Ensure that you have the potential to take a seat down collectively and rationally resolve "real-lifestyles" problems. There is no strategy to understand what your lifestyles will hold for you at some point, so you must are living for today, and do what makes you pleased... Or else you will live your existence with remorse.

I would worry a little bit if you want to get married and have kids before you are too old. Just start getting out there more to meet women. Ask one of your married friends or other friends if they have any good single female friends that you could go on a date with. Some of them must know at least 1 or more single women that they can set you up with, who also wants a future (marriage, kids).

I am of the same breed you describe. The exception, I am now 38 and was 29 once. Finding myself hastily married to someone who was undeserving and ungrateful. I allowed myself to become driven by lonliness and executed a mistake that cost me and 3 children heavily. I raised 3 children, whom are my greatest posessions. I am now 10 years wiser, trust yourself only unto those who share a common set of core values. Be patient, be social and above all else be an individual, yourself... Love will come my friend, but the price of haste is a burden that weighs heavy. Tomorrow is upon you, shine with integrity.

I don't think you should worry. You are just taking your time.
It's a big commitment and you shouldn't settle for less. It's
not easy being the odd man out. You can ask them to fix you
up- or you can actively start dating more.
Believe me. The grass is always greener on the other side
and it won't be too long before you hear from one of your buddies
that you are so lucky to be single! Just take your time, find the
right girl and go slowly without the pressure from your friends.
Good luck to you.
