I'm used to getting the "So.... how are things?" question at family gatherings and knowing that what they really mean / really want to know is whether or not I have a boyfriend.
But this weekend, that was taken to whole new level.
Well-meaning Aunt: So.... Are you seeing anybody?
Me: [Unapologetically] No.
Well-meaning Aunt: Oh, that's too bad. [Pats me on the shoulder.] It will happen for you someday.
Me: It's not bad at all. It's actually pretty great. I like to say that I'm seeing myself. I get to eat whatever I want, go wherever I want, watch whatever I want on TV. I don't answer to anyone. I get to do whatever I want. It's pretty awesome.
Drops the mic.
