Yes, you are right about everything. To be honest, since I was a kid, I've been trying to focus on myself and not worry much about what others think or what the society expects of me. And I believe this helped immensely. But I'm still a part of the society; we all are.
I completely support everyone's decision to enjoy life and focus on what truly matters to them. If it's a relationship, then great. If it's something else, it's also awesome. As long as the societal expectations and stereotypes don't mess with our head, it's all that matters.
