Search The Punch keywords http://www.thepunch.com.au/search/ http://www.thepunch.com.au/articles/thanks-but-im-not-dying-im-just-single/ My Facebook profile has been a source of confusion and anxiety for several of my loved ones over the years. To be precise, it’s where ‘single’ has been listed next to ‘relationship status’ for longer than I care to confirm. Yup, I’m 22-years-old and single. Very, very single. Apparently the spinsterhood clock is ticking for me, and it’s ticking pretty loudly. The reaction I receive to my single status has been a source of amusement to me in recent times. The head-tilt and lip pout, followed by the ‘oh really?’ comment has become incredibly predictable. The ‘all in good time’ speech that follows has also quickly become an expectation. feedback@thepunch.com.au (Stephanie Anderson) Article http://www.thepunch.com.au/articles/thanks-but-im-not-dying-im-just-single/#comments http://www.thepunch.com.au/articles/thanks-but-im-not-dying-im-just-single/#item4576 Sun, 28 Nov 2010 19:55:16 +0000 Stephanie Anderson | Author bios | The Punch
