I find I compare myself to everyone else and can often let this dictate my decisions! When I was planning my wedding, I wanted to get married within a certain period of time because I wanted to be under 30 before I got married. I even calculated how old my married sister and friends to see how old they were when they got married. When I realised I was the oldest one at the point I got married, I felt really inadequate! Now that I am married I am doing the same about having a baby... "If I get pregnant this month, I will be the same age as such a friend..."
Just feels like I'm being a bit odd and unreasonable and I don't know why I feel like this or how I can stop it! Is this unreasonable or normal??
