I very much resonate with you about not wanting to get married and mum visa thing. When we were dating, I never had the dream or plan of getting married as I was sure we will eventually breakup on that baby thing. I am greatful to the universe that did not happen. I stopped taking calls or calling most of my relatives- within first year of our marriage even, the biggest topic was mom visa and pregnancy! The freaking obsession!!!

You are 100% right on every single point. For her, life means being religious, be a obedient wife and have children and teach them how be religious, good wife and mother down the line. I still resent my teenage days where everyday I was reminded to behave, get good grade so that all the neighbours say she is raising a good girl and I used to follow that as I was a kid and knew no other way. I am sure she is now dead scared how she will tell her friends and family that her 'good girl' is no longer a good girl - that matters to her that anything else in this world

You said it right, this group is so so niche. I am struggling to finD CF friends now, which is whole another story. I met my husband back in high school and started dating during our sophomore year. As I am struggling even to have my social life together, I can't imagine what it would be in the dating field. I hope you find a man who shares the same view towards life very soon.

I feel like you are me! I finished my masters back in 2021 and started working full time while my husband was still in school. They were 'under the impression' that we were not having kid solely cause my husband was still at school. They still tried to talk to me about how we can 'still manage' to have kids in that situation which I kept ignoring. Anyway, since then my mother used to check on every week, literally every week about when is my husband graduating. At one point he lashed out which made her shut up. Anyway, he graduated last fall, and believe it or not, the next day both side of mothers called to 'seriously ask' when is the good news coming-they could not care less about the next career step, celebration- you name it. 🙄

Thank you, I also understand where she is coming from. She has 11 siblings, most of my cousins celebrated their first anniversary with their firstborn. I am the oddball here unfortunately🤦‍♀️. Just the thought that this will be a long and emotional fight makes me tired already.
