I mean, think about what I write.
I've planned every character's wedding, like literally like sat and helped plan every character's wedding on Grey's for years and years.
And when Olivia Pope got married in her dream sequence, I planned that wedding too.
All of those things were true.
And I love love, obviously.
I write about it all the time.
But I had been a person who my whole life, I had been... I could imagine being a mom from the time I was a kid.
There was never a husband involved.
I always say, like, I had a Ken doll and I kept Barbie shoes in his head.
Like, that was what he was for in a lot of ways.
And it's not that I don't love dating and love... I just...
got engaged and felt suffocated in a way that terrified me.
And I was also really bothered by the fact that I got engaged to somebody and I have all of these accolades and accomplishments.
And the excitement and joy that somebody else wanted to marry me, people rejoiced like a war had ended.
It was crazy.
Far more interested and excited about that than any award, my three children, anything else.
And that also really bothered me.
And I really think I worried about losing myself and losing the definition of who I was because I was going to have to share another piece of my brain with somebody else.
You know, children take up a lot.
Writing takes up a lot.
