I don’t get it. Everywhere I look there is this discussion about getting into a relationship, getting gfs/bfs and constantly chasing after it. And I’m not doing anything of it. I never paid attention to such stuff. During my teenage years, I thought it was normal attraction which people cave into and pursued such things. But now in my 20s, the same thing I observe, if not a little bit more than I used it. People getting sad because they are not finding someone. People being happy because they have one for themselves.

I’m not that career focused either. I just mind my own business. If it’s studying or working, I just mind that. I do nothing like checking out girls in my school/workplace like my peers do. Maybe I’m just scared to pursue such things. I also think having a relationship is a huge headache too. Meeting them, making them happy, going out with them regularly. (I don’t go out myself where will I take her to?). All of this while doing your daily stuff.

Am I wrong thinking to put career first before I get into relationships and stuff?

    I agree with those that say it really depends on what you want atm. If it’s something you’re actually wanting and think you can manage that with the other things you have going on, then as a 30 year old loner myself, I would say go for it—but maybe that’s just me projecting. I’ve been bitching about getting into a relationship and make excuses nonstop but I ain’t necessarily getting any younger. They’ll probably make the movie 60 year old virgin about me, so look forward to that (the movie). 😉
