K10Noel: nelle...
bluefrome: what
K10Noel: I think that you should keep your eyes open.
bluefrome: ???
K10Noel: sorry to say it... but I do..
bluefrome: what's that supposed to mean?
K10Noel: well.. you tell me that you don't plan on marrying him.
bluefrome: right
bluefrome: so?
K10Noel: and you don't see a future with him.
K10Noel: so why are you wasting your time?
bluefrome: i'm not wasting my time
K10Noel: then what are you doing?
bluefrome: having fun
bluefrome: why do i have to be on the lookout for a husband all the time?
K10Noel: alright.. well.. keep your eyes open to other men while you're "having fun".
K10Noel: because you want to have kids while your eggs are still ripe.
bluefrome: oh
bluefrome: my
bluefrome: god
K10Noel: :-)
K10Noel: what?
bluefrome: get married now
bluefrome: so that you can have kids while you're still young
bluefrome: that's bullshit
bluefrome: and i'm sorry, but i'm not dad, and i won't have the patience to stick with someone who falls apart on me
bluefrome: i'm not going to rush getting married
bluefrome: because i'm "supposed to"
K10Noel: you think someone's going to fall apart on you?
K10Noel: everybody falls apart.. everyone gets old.
bluefrome: hey, dad graduated from college, got a job, and then needed a family
bluefrome: so he found mom
bluefrome: because he was supposed to
bluefrome: it was the natural order of things
K10Noel: yea... well..
bluefrome: college, job, wife, kids
bluefrome: met and married in 6 months?
bluefrome: you think he would have rushed it if he knew then what he knows now?
bluefrome: hey, i admire our parents for sticking together
K10Noel: why do you feel that you have to rush?
bluefrome: well, if i'm currently wasting my time...
bluefrome: what's the big hurry?
bluefrome: why can't i waste time?
bluefrome: what's wrong with it?
K10Noel: cause you're with someone who you don't see a future with!
K10Noel: you're not looking for anyone else.
bluefrome: so i'm dating someone i don't plan on marrying
bluefrome: i'm not looking to get married soon
K10Noel: yup.
K10Noel: yea..
K10Noel: so..
K10Noel: you think you have to get married within 6 months of meeting someone?
K10Noel: NO.
bluefrome: so if i don't want to get married yet, why do i have to find the husband?
bluefrome: i mean, at least this isn't a bad relationship
bluefrome: he's not abusive
bluefrome: or clingy
bluefrome: he doesn't have grand future plans
bluefrome: so it's not like we're not on the same page
bluefrome: and he's not pressuring me to have sex
bluefrome: i think this is a great relationship for me
bluefrome: it could be a lot worse
bluefrome: so i don't know what you and mom's problem is
bluefrome: but i wish you would lay off the "you're wasting your time" "look for a guy you can marry" "keep your eyes open"
bluefrome: crap
bluefrome: he's my friend
bluefrome: i like him
bluefrome: he amuses me and i enjoy his company
bluefrome: i also think he's very cute, and i like kissing him
bluefrome: so i'm not going to stop just because you and mom want to see me married off and settled down
bluefrome: i like the way he makes me feel, and i'm not going to break up with him just because there's some potential man out there that i might meet someday
