How would you feel if all of your few friends are married and you don't have not even a steady boyfriend?

that happened to me.
then they all had kids - except me.
then they all got divorced and depressed or became party animals. they are all living in misery, now.
then i got married, had the wedding i've always dreamed of, the husband every woman wants and HAPPY as a pig in slop!

I would feel like "hey guys slow down!" we are only 20-something! or whatever. I would think good for them, they obviously discovered you can grow together and probably found some sort of steady income and it makes sense for both of them to make that step. But on the other hand I would be glad it wasn't me, because that is a huge commitment that frankly I am not ready for and I am still having fun being single. I feel the need to read those articles about the fun of being single to remind myself how great I have it. I would be glad I'm not one of those women who's only mission in life is to get married by X age. I would redecorate my apartment in all the girly things I want to enjoy and celebrate the fact that I don't have to watch stupid guy movies or sports if I don't want to. And I would try to make a few new single friends to hang out with so I didn't start overanalyzing my position in the current friend group. Once you are ok with your life and who you are and you stop looking for Mr. Right you'll be surprised what happens and who you find, but first you have to prove you can be independent and happy on your own.

In my 20's I'd feel devastated and unlovely
In my 30's I'd be bloody afraid
In my 40's most of my friends will be divorced and available again and around 50 I'll happily settle for a kind male companion I can do lunch with

And how do they all secretly feel when you get to go out on the pull, meet somebody new, get that "first kiss" with a new partner - damned right they miss it.
The grass is always greener and all that...
Your prince charming will turn up sooner or later - and the wait will have been worthwhile. Meanwhile, statistically, one in every three of your friends are going to get divorced!

I know this isn't exactly what you asked, but it relates so stick with me.
I have just finished reading this book called The Godmother and it's main character is in your shoes, where all her friends are married and she feels like she missing out on life.
Read it, it gives a great account on why it's better to be in your shoes i promise you, you won't be disappointed.

If you are younger than 22, you are lucky. In any case, wait for the right person. Would you like being unhappy because, just to be married, you did it to the wrong person? Good luck. And live your own life.

i will feel left out but not to the point that i will be down on myself and grab the first person i see on the street but rather i'll be more wary and cautious about the persons i willing to give my commitment to and i;ll be watching how all my married friends life are and learn from their experiences right or wrong!

a feeling of ostratization from the group. it is better to marry or to form another group that shares the same idea. otherwise it feels pain
