Awkward

Why are holidays so awkward?

I posted on Facebook that being in your 30's, single during the holidays sucks.  I got lots of "enjoy it while it lasts" or "someone will come along" and occasionally "ditto".  I should have been a bit more specific when I was posting that thought.  Out of all my siblings I am the only single one which at the dining table or family functions makes me the odd man out.  To top it off I am the eldest so it seems like a bit of a blow to the ego when all of my younger siblings have someone they can bother on a daily basis.

Don't get me wrong, I love my life!  I have some awesome friends, my family  absolutely rocks, and when needed I have pillows to cuddle up to at night.  There is just something about this time of year that when you are single that makes public events uncomfortable.  Guess I just need to embrace the awkward.
