I went to a social gathering this past weekend with a lot of high school friends I hadn’t seen in a while. I generally have no problem with small talk. I just can’t stand questions about me being single. There’s always that one questions “So are you seeing anybody?” And when I say no, obviously it opens up all sorts of follow up questions/comments:
- Oh, it’s okay! You’ll find somebody
- Being single is better anyways, you can do whatever you want
- So you aren’t looking for anything right now?
- So there isn’t anybody you’re interested in??
And much, much more.
Yes, of course I’m looking. I guess nobody is interested in me. People need to stop. Not one thing is “better” than the other.

Funny – people say a lot of shit to me but that’s the one question I never get. Or maybe I just don’t care enough about being single to notice.
Glad to see you back to blogging btw!
Thank you! Glad to be back 🙂
