Last night, I learned I'm officially the old maid of my jr. high/high school friends. Of those I still talk to (who I can count on one hand), I'm the only one not married or engaged. I didn't think it would come to this for another 10 years. At least by then I could have a book deal to boast about in response. Luckilly, I still have plenty of sleezebag college friends who aren't tied up yet. So I don't feel too inadequate. But it leads me to wonder: what did my old friends do that I didn't? Am I some kind of commitment phobe or dysfunctional human who will never trust or love? Or are they the oddballs for settling down so early in life?
