I’m now approaching my 30’s and blah blah blah yeah I’m young I guess, and there is so much time, blah blah blah.
But realistically, I’d like to hear from the ladies in their 30’s and 40’s who are not married. Do you ladies live alone, or have you moved back with parents / siblings? Do you plan on adopting, and if so, what hurdles are you coming across?

Pcg, first 
,then 
!Enjoy your singledom!
Re: Singledom
I am a planner. I plan ahead. I know what's coming.
So, seriously, would like to hear from single ladies to see how they're dealing with getting children - adoption. Or, although I doubt it, but if anyone has had artificial methods of pregnancy, please do share.
Re: Singledom
Ive got a relo who is in her mid-30's and she's bought a place of her own and lives there...
and, seriously, you're 2 years from being 30! ur not 30 until ur 30!
Re: Singledom
It's 1.5 yrs away. Before I know it, March will be here, and I hit the 29.
Its kind of a kinky age, actually.
Re: Singledom
it's still awhile... and its really not the end of the world.
Ive got a friend ur age... and to be honest, i still think shes not a day past 21
dont tie marriage to an age. A lot of peopel make that mistake and rush into marriage, not really knowing what they're getting themselves into... seriously
Re: Singledom
why do girls complain a lot? i'm 32 and NOT saying a thing! :D
Re: Singledom
Because by desi standards, you are still a child, and you can whore around until about 40 at which point, the ladies in your family will start fawning over you trying to find you a 20 year old virgin.

Re: Singledom
PCG, i feel the more we obsess about these things the farther they run away from us. I don’t know how much of it is true but i have seen it happen in alot of cases. I am not saying that you should just sit back and wait for someone to bring baraat on your door, BuT don’t obsess about it either. I know as human beings we have this tendency to be impatient and fret when things are not going our way. However, all this whinning is not going to help your case but will actually only make it worse because nobody wants to be with unhappy people :(.
When things are meant to be, they will happen. Stop thinking about it too much and you will see iA in some time when you will be least expecting it, it will happen. I have experienced this in my own family.
Meanwhile, just try to expand your social circle and let everyone you trust know that you are looking to settle down.
All the very best 
Re: Singledom
To me it sounds as though Sister PCG has resigned from thinking about getting married and wants to start a family regardless ... Perhaps I'm wrong but everyone is giving her solace yet she is indicating that she wants to be a mum ... husband or no husband.
Re: Singledom
Yeah psyah, you have a problem with that?
Re: Singledom
I know several desi girls who're in their early 30's (one is 35 actually)....who're single. They all live on their own, have full-time careers and a circle of friends who keep them busy.
I'm not sure if being "single" is a reason to move back in with parents. I mean....if you're living on your own, and capable of supporting yourself financially....what's the logic behind moving back in with parents just b/c you're single?
As for adoption....when I was around 27/28...I wasn't too sure if I was going to get married. This is something I seriously considered. This was my "plan": if I am still single at 35, I would seriouly start considering adoption. I see nothing wrong with it. But being a single mother with adopted child....financial stability is a MUST so that's something that has to be planned out. You also need to decide age, ethnicity, child care etc. It's a major responsibility but not impossible.
I think 29/30 is a "kinky" age only if YOU make it that way. :)

Aloha!
Don't the same desi standards apply in your case?
you're not desi?
Re: Singledom
PCG…I dont know anyone who gave up on finding someone after the age of 28. 
Larki…stop thinking about this stuff. You want to plan? Plan on taking a trip around the world before 30! Do things that make 30 look good!
If you’re in such a hurry to change diapers and smell like formula, come on over! I’ve got a 6 month old nephew with your name all over him!

By desi standards these liberties apply exclusively to men. That's what she was saying.
