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?

    You don’t ever have to have a relationship if you don’t want to, it’s your life, live how you want. I do personally think there is a benefit to early life relationships, helps us learn to relate to others, people who stay alone for so long get too particular about their lives and can’t always transition to shared lives. But that’s not insurmountable even if it happens to you, and it might not, or you might decide you don’t ever want to couple-up. All that is up to you, enjoy!
