So yesterday I found out that I'm going to be an Uncle. Pretty cool no doubt, but my brother and his wife are 4 years younger than me (22). I am still single (and loving it though I do have a g/f).

I have also seen this same thing with 2 other friends of mine. both of their younger siblings are aleady married and are pregnant and both the older siblings are still single and taking their time with the whole settling down deal.

So anyone else seeing this?

My guess is that the younger ones "grow up" quicker than the older ones b/c they have us to look up to when they were growing up. I know my brother did learn what not to do by seeing what I did (life situations, finances, etc).

 

both my little sisters were married and had kids before i was even married

 

nope.

 

My older brother (by 2.5 years) got married before me. He is also now divorced. I've had the same g/f for quite a while now, but am not ready to tie the knot. His experiences have helped me learn, thats for sure.

 

my cousins both got married before their older brother.

im fairly certain that my younger sister will get married before me. judging by track records and how i havent had a gf in a few years and she has had a few serious relationships.

 

I've noticed everyone is settling down before me.

There again, I smell funny, like to eat durian and pick my scabs.

 

I'm one of the oldest brother/cousins (23) and my younger sister (22) is married with 1 kid and a couple of my younger cousins have kids too not married though. makes me feel like i should have a kid soon

 

startin out young now-a-days...

 

My younger brother is married with two kids. I'm still playing the field.

 

my lil sister just got engaged. she 22.
me? .....i'm still bunny humping the world.
