Lately, I've been feeling as if I am living off a curse, that's why I am single and may sadly, remain so.
Of all the siblings on either side of my family, at least one of them is unmarried. On my father's side, I have two aunts that are unmarried, they went on to have children out of wedlock and that was a sad outcome. The other aunt has 6 girls, and one of her girls is unmarried. On my mother's side, one of my aunt's is unmarried, she stayed dateless for the longest time, and was engaged (at least twice) and ditched just before marriage. She does not have any children and even that is a sad outcome.
And then if you go further down the chain of relatives through cousins, etc, at least one of the women is unmarried. So I may be the one carrying the unmarried curse on behalf of my family. I sort of feared this was the case growing up, aware of the status of my relatives, and having to go through heartbreak after heartbreak. I thought this may be my life, it may have been set out for me that I may never marry, never find true love, hardly ever come close. I just remembered that this weekend, because even though I live in the heart of the city, where most of the major Atlanta events occur, I am still dateless and single as a Junebug. I am no Ugly Betty (in the looks department) but I am her in the attitude department, so what gives?
