I am a proud single woman. I don't need a man in my life to make me happy. I'm happy with the way things are right now, even if I get depressed and stressed at times. What I don't appreciate is people telling me that I need to be in a relationship.
"Allison, you're so pretty! Why don't you have a boyfriend?"
"You haven't been in a relationship in two years?! What are you waiting for?!"
"No offense, Ally. But you need a boyfriend."
"Oh he's cute! Is he single? GO FLIRT WITH HIM!"
"You don't know how to flirt, do you?"
Why do people feel the need to say this shit to me? I'm so sick of people asking me why I'm not in a relationship or telling me I need one. At first I was just annoyed, but now I'm really starting to feel like shit about it. If I had the opportunity to be in a relationship, I would. I crush on guys all the time, but I don't act on them. They're only in school and I only see them two days a week. What's the point?
I'm intimidated by men, I don't act the same around them. I'm never around them. I've lived with two other women my entire life so every time I see a guy I don't know what to do. Act normal, people say. But I get so nervous around them. That's only natural to me. Just... whatever.
Every time people bring up with this shit it makes me want to just get up and yell "OBVIOUSLY THERE'S SOMETHING WRONG WITH ME". When people bring it up, I'm really starting to believe it now because they bring it up all the time. Especially family. I'm literally flipping fucking tables. I'm so sick of this shit.
I do miss being in a relationship, I'm not gonna lie. But I don't want to rush things and then again people are making me feel like shit or I really should be in one. I don't even know anymore or what to believe. I'm just done. I'm so sick of thinking about it and hearing about it. I feel like one of those annoying girls ranting about how they're not in a relationship and whatnot and the irony is that I hate them. WHATEVER.
