Why my friends hate me

Sometimes I feel like my friends don’t like me so much anymore.
Why? Because I am the only one who is not married yet. While they are busy with children and family duties, I still have time for salons, spa visits, small travels, hobbies, and things that make me feel alive.

I don’t think I am better, just in a different stage of life. But some people take it personally. They think I am “carefree,” “not serious,” or “living too easy.” And sometimes they get irritated because I have time for myself, while they don’t.

But here is the truth: I am not against family life at all. I want that too. And when I have it.. I still want to keep the life I have now. I want to stay myself. I want to be a woman who loves her partner, her future kids, but also her own life.

Happiness is not about choosing one side.
It’s about balance, the same way I balance my free time now.
And one day I will just add family to it, not replace everything I am.
