The tone-deaf "how's your love life" questions
God, they piss me off so bad. The only thing that's worse is people actively trying to set me up with men, even though I keep telling them to stop. Just spare me the fucking embarrassment of having some guy look at me and then predictably making it clear he's not interested, please. It's just painful.
I seriously don't get how tone-deaf one can be, like do you have eyes? Do I look like someone men would be happy to be set up with? Why do you have to ask if I found someone to date every damn time you see me as if the answer weren't obvious? Why are you so desperately trying to push a relationship on someone like me? Just leave me be ffs.
The worst is some people seriously suggesting for me to just "look for a man to take care of you" because I've been struggling to find a job. That would be a ridiculous idea even if I was attractive, let alone for an ugly woman like me.
I hate how ignorant people are when it comes to this. Why do they act like it's so easy? As if any men would ever be interested? Don't even get me started on the "beauty is subjective!!" and other such platitudes when I point to my unfortunate looks.
I'm tired, man. I seriously wish people would stop ever talking about relationships when I'm involved.
