So I have, um, a fear of marriage, that's a fear of mine. I feel like it's rational.
I feel like it goes beyond my disdain for tacky facebook engagement photos, and maybe
there's lie a little bit of psychological damage there from my brother, but I think
the real reason is I have always had a deep-seeded aversion to group projects...and from what
I've been able to gather, marriage is just like a lifelong group project. Am I wrong?
Only, instead of your grade being at stake, it's your entire life mission and eternal
salvation. Like, what kind of pressure is that to choose a group for? But right now
I feel like I'm at that time where the teacher announced there is going to be a group project,
and everyone around me is like making eye contact and pairing up, and I'm just like
"No! I don't know anyone in this class! I don't--How do you guys know each other so
fast? Are you just randomly getting together so that you aren't alone? Are you trying to
avoid being partners with me, is that what's happening right now?" It's going to get to
the point where the teacher is going to be like, "who doesn't have a partner, raise your hand."
And I am the only one raising my hand and I'll be like, "you know, can't I just
work alone?" and they'll be like, "No, no, is anyone willing to be partners with Hannah?
Maybe we could have a group of three?" And everybody is like, "I finally get polygamy.
I get it now." The worst part about group projects is that all the sudden everything
you turn in is both of yours. LIke, you work so *** this project, right, you put everything
you have into it, you are working day and night, doing research, you're not sleeping,
and he does maybe like one thing and then you get to class and all the sudden it's
"We're pregnant." Right?
