So...many, many months ago I tweeted about how I “felt sorry” for girls who decide to marry before 25, EVEN IF they’ve found the love of their lives. I got SO much hate for that thread that I eventually took it down. Was told that it is a personal decision +
and that I didn’t have the right to say what I did. I don’t subtweet too much, but that particular thread was typed out keeping in mind a relatively young couple who were engaged to be married (and who now no longer together). So I’m just going to repeat myself and let +
young girls know, please, please PLEASE focus on yourself, on finding out who you are as a human being before you commit to another person for life. Your mid twenties are ever changing. You will form opinions on things you didn’t know were important in your late teens/early +
twenties. You will learn things about yourself that you didn’t know earlier. Honestly, as a happily married woman with a partner who has absolutely no qualms about my sexuality, my personal opinions, my religous beliefs; who gives me not only the privelege of being myself +
unapologetically but also the room to GROW, I STILL vocalise how marrying at 25 was considered “early” by my standards (even if I say it in the context of a joke). IDK, I was also under the impression (even as a ten year old, that I’d marry at 28. +
That was the number my young version was fixated over). Anyway, if you’ve made it to the end of this thread, here’s a song for you to enjoy that resonates with my message. https://open.spotify.com/track/75bpVVgp0HCT9Ad6uIFGvH?si=aDltX-LtQb6Stf6HfhlOGA
Ufff SO many typos
