Switch drinks

Instead of my usual signature hot chocolate no whipped cream, I ordered a tall caramel macchiato today.  That's a significant change for me because I almost ALWAYS order the hot chocolate.  But today, I decided to try something new. And it was good, taste not bad.  Now I have an alternative when I want something less sweet and with more caffeine.

And as I was walking home today, the marriage questions popped into my head again.  A lot of people wrote on Chris' facebook today to wish him a happy birthday.  A few of them (mostly family members) said they look forward to hearing good news from him - aka the 'We are getting married' announcement.

It seems like the more people want us to get married, the more I want to delay it.  Why do they think marriage is the natural step? Of course, I wan to get married - I never said I will not marry - but I just want to rationalize this. 

Should there always be such an urgency for marriage for couples who have dated for more than say 2 years? 

And for those who you who are married, how do you decided when is the right time to get married?  What is that threshold?  Because I think I need that extra push.  Right now, I'm not feeling it.

Chris and I talked on the phone this afternoon.  I said to him that I will turn 30 next year - OMG! To which he replied, should we do something for the 30th birthday to mark that significant birthday?  Though I did not answer him directly, I think he was implying that we get married.




Hum.......................................clear this up for me, will ya?
