I don’t know how it is over there but I feel like relationships hold way too much importance in our society. I constantly get made fun of because I’ve never really had a girlfriend but from where I see it I just want to find the right person. I don’t just want to be with someone for the sake of being with someone.
You're way helpful
And I agree with this. I guess what killed me was that I was forced to be in like a 'relationship' relationship, like very stereotypical and very over-serious and very much trying to have it as some sort of status, like "look, we have a RELATIONSHIP" like it's some sort of idealistic norm.
I also want to find the right person, but I realize now that it has nothing to do with romance .. As a matter of fact, I DID find the 'right person' shortly afterwards who became my best friend for years .. and that person showed me true happiness .. but it's also just pain these days since we haven't spoken in years.
Blergh. What to do.
