I got stuck babysitting a kid somehow related to my sister’s friend when we went to pick my sister up from her friend’s house (because I am a Woman and therefore I clearly must want to watch these strangers’ child -.-) and at one point she said “I bet you have a booooyfriend and you like to kiiiiss him” and I absently replied “nope, I like girls” and then panicked because what if I shouldn’t have said that to a stranger’s child but she immediately without hesitation said “you have a giiiiirlfriend and you like to kiiiiiss her” and honestly I almost cried the world is good sometimes
#I did not want to watch the child I wanted to go swimming#in the lake#by myself#not babysit her by the shore for hours#but she gave me validation and hope for humanity so like it was worth it I guess#but seriously I was so annoyed with her parents#they literally just assumed I'd be okay with watching their kid#like#if I wanted to watch kids I'd get pregnant I'm an adult I can do that#I choose not to#because I want to be able to swim across a lake without worrying that I'm leaving a kid to drown?#(I mean I have more reasons than that obviously lololol)#(but that's up there)
