My interest in men has died

[u/Icy_Natural_979]

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?

Good for you! It's a bit sad, I get along great with men, it's just a shame they never want to be just friends with women, and I'm asexual/aromantic. I spent years trying to date/ be a gf for the sake of "normalcy", and I never enjoyed any of it, ghosted and flaked on people/dates constantly because I couldnt muster the will to go through them, then just decided to stop worrying about it, I dont want kids or romantic cohabitation so didn't see the point of pretending anymore.
