[quote=Anonymous]No. It is one barometer of success. I'm neither married nor do I make a whole lot of money in some senior executive position. But boy have I had a full life. I've lived in five countries and I speak six languages. I have completed an Ironman, an ultramarathon, and I've climbed mountains. I spent my mid-20s in the Peace Corps. I've had a handful of medium- and long-term relationships that have ended, amicably. I've lived on $350/month and had the time of my life. I haven't given birth, but I have saved someone's life. I've written a novel. I've run for office (no, I did not win). I love being an aunt, a sister, and a best friend. I turn down men left and right, fully knowing the risk of not finding anyone by 35, or even 40. There is no shortage of suitors. Finding the right partner would be wonderful, but I'd rather chart my own course than over-compromise with someone who is wrong for me. [/quote]
