“Someone else’s idea of what constitutes a good life or “happily ever after” is not a one-size-fits-all.
You can be someone for whom relationships are too complicated.
You can be going through something in your life, processing trauma you may have denied for too long, or you can be going through physical changes in your body. Either way, you might not have the desires other people expect you to have.
Maybe all you want right now is a friend. Friendship is the best foundation, anyway, for whatever may evolve beyond that.
It boils down to this: Not everyone wants the same thing, and that’s okay.”
