The world (and especially my mother) seems to believe that the next logical step after graduating college and securing a full-time job is to find a husband. While I see where they’re coming from, since my mom was actually married at my age, I have a very strong belief that marriage is not something one should rush. I know the whole “ring by spring” thing seems to be a big deal right now, but the last thing you want to do is add to the 50% divorce rate statistic that is currently on the rise. In fact, if you can relate to any of these, please do us all a favor and quit retweeting Verragio.

1. Your longest relationship only lasted four months.
2. You’re far more interested in planning your wedding on Pinterest than planning your wedding in real life.
3. You still say “I hate children” on a regular basis, and you mean it.
4. You would much rather sleep alone in your queen-sized bed than share it with someone.
5. The thought of never making out with someone else ever again in your entire life makes you die a little inside.
6. You just went on a three-day vacation together and wanted to kill him before it was over. You even considered places you could bury the body.
7. You’re only having sex once a week. Seriously, this is as good as it gets. If you’re only having sex once a week now, it’ll only be once a year by the time you’re 40.
8. The only person you hate more than his mom is his older sister.
9. You refuse to give up your “personal space” by moving into his apartment, despite the fact that it is closer to your office and has bigger closets.
10. You’ve cheated on him more often than you’re willing to admit, even to yourself.
11. You’re only thinking about it because you know it would make your ex-boyfriend jealous.
12. He’s already been married and has kids. Not only should you not be thinking about getting married, you should actually be running away from this situation.
13. You’re starting to understand why his ex-girlfriend said “good luck” when she found out you were together.
14. You have trouble thinking of a single activity you enjoy doing together.
15. You just don’t want to.
