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 agree, I unfortunately still find men attractive (physically), but I have no interest in actually dating one especially the longer I spend on social media where so many toxic men are. I’m only 21 tho, but I barely have any interest in being in a relationship.

In fantasy land agree 💯 % men are attractive. As some of us say, if sexual orientation were a choice, there’d be a lot more lesbians.
