I never wanted children or to get married. I have an uncle (love him) who constantly asked at family gatherings when I would marry and have kids. When I'd tell him I didn't need a man or children and that I was happy the way I was, he always looked at me with a mix of confusion and disgust. What was wrong with me? He even asked me if I was gay on a couple occasions. Be who you are, gay or not, but to assume I was gay because I wasn't dating anyone at a particular time and voiced my desire to remain single and childless is just insensitive and frankly, stupid. Still love the guy, but he definitely tests my patience.
