Lots of 26 year olds here (me too!). And I'm completely single, no boyfriend at all, getting my PhD in chemistry. Even my own family thinks that there must be something "wrong" with me because I'm not settled down and not really thinking about it seriously. But you know what...two years until I'm done with my degree and then I'm having some fun with the rest of my 20s!! Travelling, settling down where I want to (or not settling down)...I don't want to get out of school and immediately have a husband/children to care for. So I say to heck with the pressure...sure, the majority of people I meet seem to think I'm some sort of reject, but I'm very successful, doing what I love, and I'll be a Dr. soon. And I'm confident that when I finally do settle down, it will be the right thing to do, not just what everyone else thinks is right.
