I spent the last few years peacefully unbothered by hookup culture.
Why?
Because it was none of my business, okay?
I was in a relationship.
Hookup culture is for the singles.
I would occasionally think about hookup culture because, you know, I live in a culture that enjoys a hookup.
But for the most part, it was out of my mind.
And it was kind of incredible, to be honest, because I've never been somebody who thrives in a casual hookup scenario.
It's just not for me.
And some of you might be thinking, Emma, you're trying to say you're not like other girls.
You're different, you're more emotional.
That's why you don't like hookups.
No, it's not that.
It's because I tend to be nervous and uncomfortable during it.
And afterwards, I tend to feel some sort of pain.
And the pain varies.
You know, the source of the pain varies, but every time there's been some sort of pain.
So that's why I don't thrive in that scenario on the surface level.
But it's back on my mind, okay?
Because these days, I'm back to being a lone wolf, okay?
