Determined to Stay Single

I know this will somehow contradict what I was saying in my Valentine’s post, but I contradict myself all the time so why not?

Yesterday I had a six hour break in uni because I tutorials and labs didn’t run on the first week, so I went home.

So there I was sitting at the dining table happily eating bread and whatever food I can find at home, when my mum says:

“I was just talking to a friend and I want to introduce you to someone because I think you should get a boyfriend now.”

You can probably imagine out surprised I was. I choked on bread.

I was also hurt. Does she want to give me away so quickly?

But I kind of understand her since I was kind of voted as one of the people most likely to get married when they are in their late 30’s and 40’s among my classmates in high school.

I wanted to go at my own pace. I’m still not comfortable communicating with males and I don’t have a lot of male friends. I have 1 who I treat like my brother, but that’s it. Everyone else is a classmate.

The day that I end up in a relationship will be a big day.
