Well he&#039;s talked about getting both things LOL! 
Luckily my brother and sister in law are planning on having kids soon so the pressure is off us for now. It&#039;s a relief! I still get the odd comment now and then but I just ignore it. ]]></description>

lmfaoo, that&#039;s such funny advice from your dad, imagine if your husband, Mike, had tattoos and drove a motorcycle?!
OMG, that&#039;s so crazy. I wonder how your mother in law feels now that you&#039;ve been married for a while and still haven&#039;t had kids! Thanks so much for reading and sharing your own experience xxx]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[I would be so frustrated if I was in that situation! Like yes it&#039;s something exciting that&#039;s going on in your live but at four months nobody should be expecting you to be thinking about getting married already! There&#039;s so much more in your life to talk about than your relationship. 

I started dating my now husband when I was 18 so I think I skipped most of that pressure because I was so young and the extent of what my dad told me was &quot;don&#039;t marry a guy with tattoos and a motorcycle&quot;. But I remember after Mike &#038; I got engaged his family was at my parents house to have dinner and when praying for the meal his mom started praying for me to have many children. So I can kind of relate, I was like, &quot;are you kidding me right now?&quot;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[In reply to &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.melinaelisa.com/the-pressure-to-find-someone/#comment-2232&quot;&gt;The Style of Laura Jane&lt;/a&gt;.

See, my parents don&#039;t mind me going after my dreams, I just don&#039;t think they completely understand how time consuming blogging is? I think they think it&#039;s just something you write, and post. It&#039;s a little frustrating when they think that it&#039;s not something that takes a lot of time and effort!
While I was mainly talking about my dominican family, my parents don&#039;t really bother me too too much about relationships. Like you said, maybe if I&#039;m completely alone by the time I hit 30, they&#039;ll start bugging me about it. Thank you so much for reading and commenting Laura :) x]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Hey Melina! It’s definitely been forever since I’ve been in the blogging world so how are you?! I think the whole thing about having a boyfriend or girlfriend (and having babies) is a total culture thing!! I’m Filipino and before I got married my older relatives always talked about that stuff and would ask me, if was almost comical! Def try to laugh it off if you can but I can see how it’s annoying. Hang in there!!

					<description><![CDATA[My family have always been most concerned about work. I&#039;m a dreamer and I go after my dreams, which frustrates them because they would prefer I get a &#039;safe&#039; job and work my way up some career ladder. We are actually completely different and that causes problems. But with love, I guess they don&#039;t say much now, but who knows as I start climbing 30! I loved reading this post! xx]]></description>
