This is really frustrating to read. I was so happy to have found this manga but I just put this on hold for now I can't deal with the anxiety. He's living the dream life yet people want to push their own ideologies of what they think a happy life is.
Not everyone wants a relationship and that should be normal
Take off the romance tag. Take it off. If someone forces this happily aromantic man into a relationship with this messy ass nosy and noisy annoying thief of a musician I will cry. This story gave me so much anxiety because I was so happy to have a brethren for the happily single club (personally aromantic) but so scared of the romance tag. I am panicking! This man spent a life without love, HAPPILY! Tbf he might’ve not minded relationships if he met women who respected boundaries, but he’s definitely not finding that in this life either. His own family won’t respect his boundaries. His friends don’t respect it either! Also, why the fuck do you have to have it be a special event or for a special person when you buy good food? He’s living the dream! I respect him so much. It’s totally reasonable to not want to be responsible for another persons emotional and physical well-being! Relationships need a lot of time, mentality, patience, commitment, communication, money, and capacity for romantic love. Sometimes we lack one of these attributes, and that’s OKAY. Don’t force yourself into a relationship. Damnit.
