- Well, I'm 42, never married, childless, and my friendly advice is to follow
- your heart. If you enjoy being independent of men, then tell your family
- that early and often. The more times something is repeated, the more
- accepted it becomes. If you decide to get married some day, they will
- treat it as a miracle, and your wedding will be all the more spectacular.
- And if you decide to stick to your present philosophy, you'll be looked at
- as someone with the courage of her convictions. Either way you come out on
- top.
