People around are Ridiculous!

People always poke their nose on what I do, which is in no way going to affect them. My food habits, clothing, studies, job, marriage should be my decision, but people speak a lot like as if its going to make a big change in their life.

If I am on diet, people will say, "why are you on diet? Enjoy all food! Enjoy Life!" Whats with them of what I eat? And did I say, if being on diet I don't enjoy life? Ridiculous!

If parents ask if I like the person seen by them for marriage, and if I said no, there will be a lot of questioning. If I said yes, no one will bother to why I said yes. If I say I don't like that person they'll keep compelling and if I said "Ok then if you are compelling, then I'll marry that person itself". Guess what they say? hmm.. They'll say "We are not compelling, we are just saying that there is nothing negative in that person for you to say no". I'll say "Ok if you say that I'll be happy if i marry that person then i will marry just because you say so"
they'll say "U need not marry for us and don't blame us for that"
if they are so sure that that person is a very good person then why should they be scared of me marrying just on belief of their words alone? Ridiculous!

I like to do a job of my interest and my intention is to join a job of my interest as well as a descent income. I am an engineer, but that was done because of my parents compulsion. But my relative keep saying why not go for IT industry? I'll say that's not my interest. they'll say u can earn a lot. I'll say earning lot is not my intention, a descent earning will do for me. people keep pondering on this matter for nothing at all. whats with them of how much I earn? Ridiculous!
