Everyone is expected to find a partner. To settle down. To have kids.
Everyone.
If you say otherwise, you simply haven't met the right person. Or you just aren't ready yet.
They never believe you if you say you don't want to find someone. If you don't want kids.
They smile and scoff and brush it off.
Sometimes they think you're broken, or traumatized.
But what if you're not?
What if it's okay to not want a partner?
Will they ever accept you?
I hope they will.

I hope they'll accept me.
