I'm 24 (turning 25 in October) and my mom keeps treating me like I'm weird because I'm not married yet. Am I doing something wrong?

6 siblings, they're all living with their partners except my 21 year old sister and me. My younger sister is always out of the house because she goes out with her boyfriends. I'm always at home with my parents because I work from home and don't go out. I'm happy with my life and tbh I'm not interested in a relationship because the men I meet are always up to no good. However, my mom talks to me like I'm failing in life because I'm not married and she thinks I'm never going to get married. No, I don't go out anywhere because I'm always working and when I don't work I'm trying to rest.

not at all. its an old issue that never seems to end. saddly its a degree of pushing their values onto you and expecting you to live the way they want. its pretty much the same thing as parents who try to push their children into careers the child does not care for such as a sport, medicine, law, the family business. often is also a way many try to live the lives they wanted when ypunger through their children. also akin to helicopter parenting.

If you're happy doing the things YOU want to do, then you're good. Your mother sounds like her entire self worth is tied to being married and feels like you should do the same.

The more you free yourself from the expectations of others, the happier you'll be.

You're doing nothing wrong. The probowm is your family's way of thinking. They can't force you to do anything if you don't want to or if it's not the right time. Don't listen to them and don't rush yourself.

Nothing is wrong with you, she's just worried that you would get older and regret not having a husband but I believe that's illogical, when the time comes you will naturally open yourself up for the opportunity and the right guy will come along. For now you're just not ready. People get ready and want marriage at different ages some don't ever. Don't doubt yourself you're on the right track.

No. They've called me gay because I've never dated or been with a woman. The truth is that I have not found the right girl and to be honest when it comes to dating these days, there's hardly anything valuable on offer. Being single is ok. Better single than unhappily married. The key is to be happy with yourself, comfortable in your own skin.

There’s nothing wrong with you. Tell her you are content and she should knock it off. You are an adult and don’t have to respond to her nagging.

Don’t worry about it. Keep doing what you are doing. When you are ready you are ready. She should support your decision.

It's normal to be like this, don't look at people's thoughts.

It's never good to force someone to get married

I assume every guy you dated, he was the one who hit on you or pursued you
