I've reached the uncomfortable age where everyone around me has either started settling down or are about to. Marriage, kids, house, the lot.
I'm single, have no intention to procreate. I'm dreaming about buying my own house in the future, but I'm broke and jobless. I had to move back to my parents' house because of my financial situation. It's gonna take a while.

My grandma is from a time when having kids at 18 was the norm. And seeing as I'm female, I get the good ol' "you're gonna die alone with cats" spinster treatment.
I'm no beauty queen, but I get propositioned by creeps on the regular. Sex doesn't feel like anything.
My grandma thinks that I can't score a date, not only because of my lack of beauty, but because I don't put in the effort. I'm pretty sure if I was lonely and desperate, I'd have settled down a long time ago.

I've tried explaining to her that my current situation in life doesn't leave me much room for dating. I really don't need the added stress either.

And she doesn't get it. Her and all my extended family is rich, so they don't have to deal with the same issues me and my parents have to deal with.
I have to figure out how to scrape up enough money to be able to afford a vet, or a dentist, or new clothes so I can go out in public. I'm sending out job applications daily and looking for a cheap place to rent.
And during all that, somehow, I'm supposed to make time for boyfriend candidates my grandma has graciously tried to set me up with.

I'm somewhere between humiliated, sad and furious.
It's really started to take a toll on my relationship with my grandma.
Talking doesn't help. I make excuses so I don't have to see her.
I want her out of my life and I feel shitty for wishing that.

Trust me, my situation is much worse than yours. But I can relate to your pain and I hope your grandmother quits pestering you soon. :)

I'd be mad, too. :( I don't want any relationships either, and if anyone tried to pressure me into one, I think I'd push them away for my own sanity. You aren't obligated.
