Single, not sick, aunt 🙄

* * The closer to 30, the more you know...People around us suffer more from our singles than ourselves * *

Yesterday, walking to buy things in front of the alley, enjoying the aunt next door, greeting the classic sentence heard until the ears dislocated:

🤶🏼 "When will you have a girlfriend? Choose too much? You'll be on the beam. The age is getting a lot."

We only smiled dry and answered the same sentence that had been answered a hundred times...

👧🏼 "Not yet, Aunt" 😅 (in my heart is...Aunt rested first!)

When I came home, I was suddenly tense when my life was really happy.

✅ work, live day by day, tired, come back to bed

✅ Some days go to eat pork pan alone quietly, getting used to it.

✅ When sick, go to the doctor alone.

✅ had a day of watching the series until late, and then in the morning I had to get up and live again.

But when the word "no girlfriend" appeared,..Our perfect lives look "broken" in other people's eyes, the bigger they are asked as criminals. 🤣

But what's the peak and the most cork, you know?

As my aunt tried to impose our concern for "singleness," we saw a more tragic truth behind the walls of my house...

Because the aunt who asked us, "When will there be a girlfriend?" was the same aunt I saw crying because he often had a small house.

Or another aunt who complains about his son-in-law, does not want the whole alley to listen, does not rest

It makes you think that...Should people have a girlfriend because they "really want to have," or just have it so that others "stop asking"?

Why do we rush into the fire just because the fireman says, "It's warm," even when he sees that he's on fire? 🔥

Finally, you...

Singles who love themselves like us should not feel guilty about their "self-chosen" lives just because of the words of those who cannot even manage their happiness. 💅✨

What about your friends? Who ever got greeted and wanted to ask back, "What about you? Happy?" 😂

Let's share the garde together soon! 👇💖

... Read moreเมื่อเราอยู่ในวัยใกล้ 30 การถูกถามว่า "เมื่อไหร่จะมีแฟน" กลายเป็นคำถามยอดฮิตที่หลายคนมักต้องเจอและอาจสร้างความกดดันโดยไม่รู้ตัว อย่างที่ฉันเองก็เคยได้รับคำถามนี้จนรู้สึกอึดอัดแทนคำตอบซ้ำๆ ที่ต้องพูดไปว่า "ยังไม่มีค่ะ" บางครั้งก็อดคิดไม่ได้ว่าทำไมความโสดถึงกลายเป็นเรื่องผิดปกติในสายตาคนรอบตัว จากประสบการณ์ส่วนตัว ฉันพบว่าการเป็นโสดไม่ได้หมายความว่าเราไม่มีความสุขหรือมีปัญหา บางครั้งการใช้ชีวิตโสดทำให้เรามีเวลารักตัวเอง ดูแลสุขภาพ และได้ลองทำสิ่งใหม่ๆ ที่ชอบโดยไม่ต้องแปรเปลี่ยนตามความคาดหวังของสังคม เช่น การได้ไปกินหมูกระทะคนเดียว การดูซีรีส์ที่ชอบจนดึกดื่น แล้วค่อยลุกขึ้นไปใช้ชีวิตในวันต่อไปได้อย่างมีพลัง นอกจากนี้ สิ่งที่ฉันเห็นจากคำถามเหล่านั้นก็คือความกังวลของคนที่ตั้งคำถามมากกว่าความต้องการที่แท้จริงของตัวเรา ทั้งที่บางคนที่ทักทายก็อาจผ่านความเจ็บปวดในความสัมพันธ์ไม่สมหวังมาจนต้องการให้คนอื่นมีคู่เพื่อไม่ให้ต้องเผชิญกับความโดดเดี่ยวแบบตัวเอง การยอมรีบมีแฟนเพียงเพื่อเลิกรับคำถามเหล่านี้ อาจทำให้เราเข้ากองไฟที่มองว่าอุ่น แต่จริงๆ แล้วอาจทำร้ายจิตใจ สิ่งสำคัญคือการยอมรับและรักตัวเองให้มากพอ การโสดไม่ใช่โรคหรือความผิดพลาด หากเราแฮปปี้กับชีวิตที่เลือก และพร้อมที่จะเปิดใจเมื่อเวลานั้นมาถึงเอง ความสุขจะตามมาอย่างแน่นอน ไม่ต้องรีบร้อนหรือรู้สึกผิดเพราะคำพูดของคนรอบข้าง เพื่อนๆ ที่กำลังเจอคำถามเหล่านี้ ลองมองกลับไปที่ตัวเองว่าเราต้องการอะไรจริงๆ และอย่าปล่อยให้คำถามของคนอื่นมากำหนดความสุขในชีวิตเราเลยค่ะ มาแชร์ประสบการณ์และหัวใจโสดที่แสนสุขกันได้นะคะ!
