It's like you can't even get your turkey down before Grandma starts asking when you're going to get married, your mother is demanding grandchildren, and your nosy aunt jumps in and wants to know who you're dating. This may sound ridiculous, but ignore them. Instead, tell them about how you're rocking your career, put a down payment on a new condo, read a really great book, or how you are putting the focus on your health for the next year and really plan to get in shape. It can feel like having a significant other and some little nuggets defines you as a woman, and it does not. There is absolutely nothing wrong with doing what's best for you and doing it in your own time. Tout your accomplishments, girl, because you earned them!
