I'm only 21 and it's something I've been noticing... when I was baptized a year and a half ago I felt like I was younger than them... but they seem to be getting noticeably and progressively younger.

That's my problem right there... I'm part of a very small branch and the only person my age is one of my best friends' boyfriend and my friends are 5-15 years older than me with husbands and some with children... and my pre-conversion/old high school friends are doing things with their lives that I am no longer part of. Then again, I'm one of those absurd 19 year olds who sees a baby and prematurely feels her biological clock ticking so one of the hardest parts about being single is just not knowing when/if the whole marriage and a family thing is going to happen for me, especially considering the serious lack of qualified candidates in my area.

Hey! My name is Brooke, I'm 19 and I live on the North Coast of British Columbia, Canada. A few months ago my life changed for the better when a couple of dashing young missionaries showed up at my door and proceeded to share the Book of Mormon and its message with me. Raised in various Christian denominations, it was something I struggled with initially, but soon I couldn't deny the overwhelming feeling that it was just TRUE. On January 5 I was baptized and I'm riding high on this newfound wave of faith! My branch is very small and aside from the missionaries, there is pretty much no one else my age so I'm just trying to spread my horizons a bit here! Looking forward to meeting you all!
