I enjoy being solo so it is thankfully not a super important thing to hammer down!!! but still awkward when coworkers get drunk and try to push about why you don't date
Being single is pretty great until your boss' son gets drunk at the Christmas party and corners you to ask you about WHO HURT YOU and WHAT'S YOUR STORY and all that mess. Please stop?? I'm fine??
My mom actually told me to do this because some of my family won't shut up about how ""perfect"" my cousins are because they have babies now even though they can't do anything other than, like, have babies?? I'm clearly the loser here
He was convinced that was why I'd moved to Wisconsin from Texas. Because somebody HURT ME. And it's like...no. But also, if that happened, do you think I'd want to talk about it with you?
that is extremely awful i just found out all the ladies on my cul de sac are wondering W T F is up with me living by myself and like?? i can?? and my brother and niece live literally around the corner so???

I'm still pissed about that and it didn't even happen to me
I'm also still mad about the coworker that came into the office, interrupted a conversation in progress to say, "OH, ARE WE HAVING BABIES? WE NEED A BABY." Bitch, we? We??? You're a 60+ year old woman I don't think you're going to be involved with impregnating me so gtfo with that "we" shit.
it was actually my boss who i was friendly with so i think she thought she was helping somehow but she stopped pushing finally after i gave a very uncomfortable shrug after she asked if i was gay and her husband was like "uhhh i don't think you can ask that" and it was just kind of a giant nightmare (no surprise that i am even more socially awkward in real life)
