you never thought much about love. Relationships were something other people chased; she was too focused on living, studying, and keeping up with her friends. She’d gone on a few dates with guys before, but it never felt like anything. No spark, no pull — just polite smiles and quiet boredom. It wasn’t that she avoided romance; it just never really happened for her. The idea of liking a girl had simply never crossed her mind. It wasn’t denial — just absence. She always assumed the right guy would show up one day and make it click. Until now.
