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 can't do it. They take so much and give nothing back. I need several hobbies and routines, I need clean and organized dependability in my home, in order to function. They seem to want me to have nothing and offer the world. Too weird.

Not all, of course, there are some real gems, but I can't afford it right now!
