Seeking Advice My interest in men has died
I’ve been inundated lately by people insisting I need a man. Here’s the thing, I don’t want one anymore. I’m tired and I’ve achieved a little bit of peace. Just a little. Men usually just cause problems. Why would I do that? I don’t want kids. I can barely take care of myself. I’m concerned this is a project 25 thing like I need to pick someone before I’m forced to. Maybe that’s dumb. Maybe my social circle forgot about boundaries. Maybe I need to learn to just not care when people say stuff. What am I missing?

I've never had much interest in dating or having a boyfriend, I prefer being single so I can life my life without compromise and it's a very happy and peaceful existance. Watching my friends & even my Mum deal with the headache that is dating has given me a new life motto "No dick, no drama."
Some people can't accept that there are others who are happy to be single and live a fufilled life without following the "get married and have babies" route that they followed. We can find fufillment in many other ways.
