19 is hilarious.

Timbit: Now we need quick comebacks for when they ask why you don't have kids yet (after you get married).

Yeah. Seriously.

wanna add something, if we keep living up to other people's standard, (when is it better to get married, when to have kids etc) how will we ever live up to be who we really want to be? Learning to walk with others isn't that bad, but waiting for others to lead you the way is a waste of time.

Default Re: Quick comebacks when they ask the question

apparently i need to talk to people with a nice/pleasent face even they ask me out of the blue why im not married. my mom said i act and look like im completely disinterested in marriage, like a feminazi. and im like, im just trying to recover from the turn the conversation took

muslim woman: oh nice to meet you guys...so do you live around here?

us: yeah we live near masjid so and so

muslim woman to me: so, what do you do?

me: i'm a student and i work as well.

muslim woman: ohhh good good. what do you study/work as?

me: *explanation of what i wanna do/am doing* because most people look at me blank if i say i'm studying the field i am..it's apparently not too popular

muslim woman cuts me off RIGHT WHEN IM ABOUT TO TELL HER about my plans of world domination
oh good, so are you married yet?

me: blank faced. uh, WHAT? so as i was saying, world domination is my goal

muslim woman: oh good. so will you get married then dominate the world?

me: well..you know, women can do these things singlehandedly. like, hilary clinton and benazir bhutto.

muslim woman: oh yes, isnt that the woman who got shot? benazir bhutto?

me: yes, and what im trying to tell you is, that i would rather you shoot me than talk to me about marriage right now..

muslim woman: I HAVE NO SONS TO MARRY OFF to people like you. la hawla wala quwwata illah billah

you know i was being really sarcastic right?

but this is for real. one time i went to a fundraiser where i was waiting for my friend to show up so i could be with her. and didnt really knwo anyone else. so then while waiting i somehow found myself between these two newly married girls id seen around town. anyways.. they started talking about their newly married lives and then saw i wasnt chipping in much so they were like, hey, are you married? and im like nah (this was when i was 18) and they were like, sooooooo, dont you wanna get married?! and im like yeah sure..one day inshaAllah. and they were like... oh, when you get married..youll think your husband is the CUTEST MAN EVER. *giggle, giggle* and i was like...really? that's nice. i think i see my friend..see you later.

it was so awkward and random
