Why Are Women Only Celebrated When They Get Married?

It's marriage week on Dear Clementine to celebrate the release of Clementine's latest book 'I Don't: The Case Against Marriage'. All week Clementine will be answering your questions around marriage & sharing the phenomenal knowledge she's gathered in the process of writing the book.

Today's question is from a woman who's 29 & entering the phase in her life where many of her friends & colleagues are getting married - whilst she's happy for them, she doesn't want to get married & is growing resentful of the fact that these couples are being celebrated for living a 'traditional life'. She fears fading into the background because she's chosen to opt out. How should she negotiate these feelings?
