Ugh.
I just got, in today’s mail, an invitation to a non-Doper wedding in Atlanta on June 20 of this year. No problems there, except that Jay’s younger, and I have now defaulted into the oldest guy in the gang with no wife/SO.
I have attending weddings alone.
Anyone want to go?
Seriously.
Biological clock? You’re a guy.
You can produce babies until the day they put you in a six walled box!
You don’t feel your biological clock - you feel peer pressure. I say screw 'em!
Then again, I also hear weddings are great places to meet young, single wimmin. With loudly ticking clocks. This might not be bad overall, Superdude.
I hear you, Superdude. I’m a 25 year old woman. In the last three years, every last one of my friends got married.
I’m perpetually single.
At every single one of the weddings, the mothers of the bride, the groom, my old friends, etc. would ask their sons and daughters, “Why doesn’t Laura have a man? She’s pretty!” :rolleyes:
Worse than attending the weddings has been the fact that married/attached people have less time to spend with their single friends. Unfortunately, I still need my friends as much as I ever did. I find it frustrating and disheartening that there are times I need someone, and there’s no one with the time to be there for me.
So I know how you’re feeling. 
Oh, and I feel I must add…
Hey, Kevin’s a handsome fellow! Why doesn’t he have a girlfriend?
Are you thinking what I’m thinking?
Go down there with some hot crazy stripper and show 'em who the boss is.
You’re thinking that he dresses up as a woman and attends the wedding in an elaborate farce a la Tootsie, and then rips the wig off and tells a touching parable about social expectations and pressures?
It’ll never happen. Anyone sending out invitations 5 months in advance is just asking to be jilted.
I know what you mean, Superdude. In the last six or seven months, I’ve attended six weddings… and will be at three more this year. (plus at least one in 2004) I wouldn’t say all of my friends are married, but certainly most of them have SO’s. Me, I haven’t even gotten an offer to go out!
Can’t make it to Atlanta, though… sorry.
F_X
Ditto.
Scary, huh? Great minds…
Bwahaha!
I hope he looks like Tootsie and not Mrs. Doubtfire. 
Coldfire is right, it ain’t your clock ticking (but I hesitate to comment on what could be ticking in ya).
I must hang with a less mature group. None of my friends are married (1 is engaged) and I have NEVER been to a wedding (I’m 24 along with about a dozen girls and guys in the same age group).
But I heard weddings are the place to be if you want to meet some nice bride’s maids
Damn right. Even if you’re too old to get a boner, they can harvest the swimmers from your wrinkled sack.
Maybe so but the quality of the sperm suffers considerably as you age.
lno, better Tootsie than Bugs Bunny in drag, I guess.
badmana, you know, I’ve thought about that. I know a few of their friends. One looks like Jane Krakowski with brown hair and two-tones eyes. She’s hot.
Q.N. jones, how you doin’? 
Pshaw. But that just means you have to try more often. And this is bad, how?
It’s a possibility that I will be in Atlanta sometime in June, so if you don’t have a companion by then and I’m there, I can spare an evening.
Other than that…you’re on your own, mister.
Heh. astro, that quote sounds really horrible until you get to the part where it says what defects the old sperm may cause: Crooked teeth or asymmetrical limbs.
::screaming in horror::
that child needs braces! AND ONE ARM IS SLIGHTLY LONGER THAN THE OTHER ONE! Nooooooooo. Don’t look directly at him!
I’m with ya’. Over this holiday break I realized just how badly I want both a wife and a child (either because of the marriage, because we conceived, or because we adopted). I am in quite a funk over it because I honestly hadn’t cared much about either wives or children up to this point from a personal perspective. Now I feel like I’ve got absolutely no time to get anything going—which is silly, some say, as I’m only 27, but to tell the truth it doesn’t feel silly.
