Relationships are gross…
Am I the only person who hates the thought of a relationship? Maybe it’s just because I’m single and my last relationship ended with me getting r@ped, but the thought of a relationship grosses me out… I love the idea of being in love and writing letters, combing your hands through your partners hair, and ect… but actually having someone to do it with is kinda.. iffy… When my friends talk about boys and how ‘I like him so much’ all I can do is support them while saying ‘you’re 15-16, you can live without a significant other’ in my head. I’ve been thinking about this lately, especially because everyone around me has been talking about ‘plotting on someone’ or ‘I like this person now’. I’ve never been so disinterested in my friend’s conversations before until then. Please tell me I’m not the only one who feels like this…

you're not the only one who thinks that. I'm personally repulsed by relationships, as I have trouble allowing myself to be vulnerable to others— you never know anyone's true intentions. of course, i know now everyone's evil and scheming against me, but it's a habit I haven't been able to quick off.
I feel it's worse to express a dislike in relationships when we're in a generation that desperately craves affection. Except, not many of us crave real love, because real love scars, it changes you, it's raw and nasty. But that's what makes it so desirable, especially to young teenagers. Young teens crave the easy dopamine quick that love gives you when it's fresh and new, yet it quickly diminishes when it starts getting real. We live in a generation that seeks structure from parasitic relationships, always receiving but never giving. From what others have said, it gets better when you mature. highschoolers will be highschoolers, they want what they don't understand. you don't need a relationship at your age to keep you stable, it's nice to have one for a short while, yes, but there's always risks.
Uhg yes! This is exactly how I feel! Relationships are so dumb!

Once you leave high school, it kinda gets better because you can be with more like-minded people. Kudos for you though on listening and trying to be there for your friends. Wishing you the best

I'm aromantic, I sincerely don't give a fuck about it. Life doesn't revolve around love and relationships.
Yeah lol. I don’t think I’m aromatic, but relationships aren’t the center of life
