Why Dont You Hang Out With Married Women?



Last night I, along with what seems to be my entire twitter timeline, tuned into VH1,to watch Lala's Full Court Wedding. So far it seem like a "cute" enough show. Lala has really done a style/glamour transformation in the past year. When she was a VJ on MTV she was ,quite boring and a little tick tack with her style, but in recent months she has been looking a lot better. But this blog post isn't really about Lala or her transformed style, it is about a comment that one her her friends ,singer/actor Tyrese made. His comment, well question to Lala was,"Why are you not hanging with married women, who have been married for a long time...?" This comment sent my twitter followers into an uproar. With me it was funny that Tyrese said this, because my husband says the exact same thing to me. I don't take what my husband or Tyrese said as, "do not hang out with single people" and I feel that that is what many viewers took from Tyrese's statement.Personally, I am (almost) 25, wife and mother and often things that are going on in my life, the average single 25 year old could not relate too. That does not make them bad people, it just simply means that have never been in that type of situation. Married people need to have other married people around for support. Dating,living together and even being engaged is a totally different ball game then actually being HAPPILY MARRIED.Most of my friends are single and childless, I have very few married friends and I don't get to see them as often as i would like,but I love them all the same. I never would want to become an "old married lady" who sits around and loses her sociability. But at the same time it would be great to have more married/mommy friends who understand the things you go through and can give you advice. Not having that support system can be difficult.All in all it boils down to this, the blind can't lead the blind.
