Late Bloomer?

Yan yung sabi ng hospital staff nung nagpa check up ako. I am almost 30 and na shock siya dahil sa edad ko. “Talaga Maam malapit ka na mag 30?” “Talaga ba?” I am very petite- short, skinny. Nasa lahi din kasi namin. She asked me if I’m already married and if I have a kid, sabi ko wala pa. She then said “ah… late bloomer?” Sasagutin ko sana ng “Hindi maam, accountancy student.”lol

The conversation took another turn, na mention ko rin kasi na malapit na akong ikasal, sabi niya pinipilit na siguro ako ng mga magulang ko because of my age. Walang pumilit sa akin, iba’t iba lang talaga yung timeline natin pero I didn’t feel the need to tell her that. I noticed she was wearing a ring on her ring finger so I asked her how old she was. She didn’t tell me right away and in a low voice she said she was 22. She also said “Bakit pa ba pinapatagal ang pag-aasawa? Tuloy parin naman ang pangarap kahit may asawa na.”

What a bizarre interaction. I didn’t think I would receive unsolicited comments from a 22 year old about marrying at an early age. Was she projecting? I don’t really know. Ate girl, we don’t know each other. Your life choices are your own and I honestly don’t care what you do.

Edit: She possibly wasn’t a nurse. I’m not sure kasi she was doing kind of an administrative role while assisting the patients with admission, hmo approval etc. Apologies for any miscommunication.

Edit 2: Edited nurse to hospital staff nalang for future readers of this post.
