Earlier this week, I found myself sitting on my bed, eating ice cream with my mom while watching a k-drama. How did I become that stereotype of a single 20 something year old woman who lives at home? Also, Blue Bell is totally to blame. Their "Bride's Cake" Ice cream is too delicious to not eat.
My mom didn't understand why I was mortified. When I was younger, I dreamed of having tons of friends who would share my interests and we'd hang out in bookstores and cafés, talking about life. Instead, I lost contact with my one non-family friend and LB2 is my present BFF. I'm pretty sure he'd trade me in if he could.
I don't mean to sound like I'm having a pity party. I'm not. I am happy with my life and if I could change any of my life choices, I wouldn't. I'm just feeling a little weird about how different my life is from the one teen me imagined.
If any of you get what I'm saying, feel free to leave a message below.
I get what you're trying to say. Sometimes I feel the same way. Don't get me wrong I love my family but I would have loved to have more with my husband before we started a family. The younger me saw my life turning out differently.
