It's that time of year where i get weirdly sad that my family will never know me
#Family Reunions are a great time to realize how much of an outsider you are in you're own family#A lot of that Is deliberate on my own part mind you#As a the Token Gay Cousin I don't really want my family asking me questions about Anything Ever#But part of me is a little sad that I'll never have the oppurtunity to introduce my partner to the family#It's a whole thing for me#And like I expected and made peace with that reality long before#It's much more Tangible now#My parents have never really met anyone i've dated Before or After they knew about the Me#I just have like hmmm.#I have a rather large extended family and my cousins are all married or settling down and meeting their partners is so normal#and I wish I could have that even If i know I would hate being perceived by my family#The last time my family knew i was in a relationship i was very uncomfortable with the Attention honestly so There's no winning here tbh#My Mother on The Regular: I just want you to get married and settle down :pleadingeyes:#Me: I could be so funny right now#But they Definitely wouldn't have approved#and Like fuck 'em for that and whatever#But Also Idk If my parent's weren't so complicated maybe i could tell them now.#I absolutely won't be doing that Right Now for a Lot of reasons but you know maybe in like 10 or 15 years I'll just let them know something#They Absolutely can't know I eloped my mother would be so distressed about it
