Does it seem like EVERYONE is getting married?

[FishOutOfWater]

The marriage madness is beginning in my expanded social circle. Apparently marriage is now The Thing To Do. Just about every week I log onto facebook, and someone on my friends list is posting that they're engaged, posting pictures from their wedding, or posting pictures from someone else's wedding in our age / peer group. This has just started happening in past year. Previously I had a couple of engaged and married friends, but they were both people I'd always known would marry young for various reasons. Now it seems like most people are getting married or are waiting with baited breath for an engagement to happen.

I'm genuinely happy for everyone who is getting married to someone they love. I just feel out of the loop because for various reasons I just don't feel ready to get married at this age, even though I'm in a long-term relationship. I just feel like not I'm old enough, mature enough, responsible enough, etc, to get married, or like I'm ready to make a lifetime commitment to anyone. I have a few friends who feel the same way (one jokes that we should create "living in sin" registries!), but I feel out of sync with the majority of my peers.
