      As someone who is living in a non-arranged marriage, if it turns out well, a relationship can be quite magical.

      It just sucks how dating looks like today, but if it works out, it is worth all of the shit.

        Rejection is painful precisely because genuine connections are so desirable. The tension, the drama, and the luck-of-the-draw of dating is both what makes it miserable and exciting. Nice to see other interesting people and to be seen as interesting to others.

      “Btw, I’m not even supposed to be born. My mother disobeyed the One Child Policy and gave birth to me”

      .

      “especially, fuck arranged marriages, ain’t doing that shit, rather be single than miserable. Not having one of the most important choices be dictated by parents”

      Right on, dude 🤘 Your entire existence is a rebellion so you might as well go the whole hog and live your way
