I've been in 9 weddings in the past 5 months!!?

Question

All of my best friends are tying the knot, and there's only a few friends who are not married. Actually, there are two more friends who are engaged, and two who are still single, along with me. In college, we were all so close! We all roomed together, or near together and were all such good friends, but now that pretty much everyone is married, my life has drastically changed. I went from having 13 really close friends, to only 2 who can relate to me, being single. :[

I am in another wedding this weekend. (one of the two engaged)

I just want my own wedding!!! Is this too much to ask? I feel like I'll never get married.

Answer 1

Is this a real question? I only ask because this smacks of "27 Dresses."

Anyway, I can understand your feelings. It is very hard when you are left single while all your friends are happily taken, engaged, or married. Simply involve yourself in more activities, things you never would have tried before, and put yourself out there a bit. The more you look for love, the less likely you are to find it (K. Hunter quote). It's kinda like the whole "watched pot" adage. Just take your time, adjust to your life changes, and get comfortable wit yourself and life again. The happier you are, the more likely you are to find the one for you.

Answer 2

you know what maybe god has plan to give you a real man for you. maybe he is searching a good man that really loves you and you can call that this is my my boyfriend my soon to be husband that accept the real me not only my positive side but also my negative side. and that is the best thing happend in my life ^_^

Answer 3

Hey slow down! Your day will come. Let's think of it this way, would you rather marry a person who you didn't really love a week from now (so you can be married like everyone else), or would you rather fall in love with a really great person a year or two later than everyone else. Patience is key. It'll happen! Plus be as happy as you can for your friends who are getting married (because they'll probably end up in your wedding one day too)!

Answer 4

wow...you are like katherine heigl

Answer 5

Sell the dresses on eBay, recoup some of your money and take a vacation.

Answer 6

Join the club! My and my BF are the last couple out of our group of friends who are left to tie the knot. The sad part is, we're probably the only responsible, financially stable, and mature couple I know! But don't worry, you'll get to the alter soon enough. It's the waiting to get there that sucks! Shove through!

Answer 7

It always feels like that when you see everyone else taking that step and you aren't.  ALL of my hs and college friends got married already.  Plus to top it off I"m a wedding planner so I've been to so many weddings.

It happens when it happens, its nothing you can rush or you end up with the wrong person.  Think of it as the universes way of finding the right guy for you!  

Answer 8

kinda like the movie ((27 Dresses))

some day you will find a great guy

and have your own wedding and all

your friends will be their with you.

Answer 9

I'm assuming that since you're all best friends that you've all been in each other's weddings.

Why not have a Never-a-Bride celebration? The guests of honor (the non-marrieds) celebrate their single status with those who have married. Have everyone wear their bridesmaids dresses. Watch movies celebrating singlehood. Grill those who have married about what they miss about not being single anymore. Serve typical wedding food - get a white cake and mints. Make it a girls' night out.

It'll give you all a chance to bond again despite the changes in marital status and remind you all that being single is not so bad.
