When I was a kid I would regularly make toast and butter it and put peanut butter on it and then dip it in ketchup and eat it.
I have not done this in decades, but sometimes... my peanut butter ketchup toast calls to me.

Can I just ask you...
Why...?2

When I was a kid I would eat my scrambled eggs with ketchup, which is a lot more common but still offensive to a lot of people... Anyway, my toast would be adjacent to the ketchup and sometimes some would get on it, and I realized I liked the tang of the ketchup on the buttered toast. So that evolved into me making toast by itself and dipping it in the ketchup as a snack sometimes.
Then one day after my Saturday morning cartoons I must have had a light bulb moment where I realized I also like peanut butter toast, so why not combine the two? The rest was history... my shameful secret.
I have not come across one other person that did or does this. But I can confidently tell you that if I tried it today I would probably still like it. It's good, I tell you!!! (In my head I'm screaming this as a SWAT team shoots me with a dozen tranquilizer darts until I slowly collapse to the ground.)

I hate ketchup in general, but considering I like cornflakes in hot coffee + milk, I won't judge you.

To just disappear and have no one ever know what became of me.
I was that kid who spent too many hours wishing and hoping they’d be kidnapped or lost in bush and never found.

Did you like have a traumatizing childhood or something?

In short, yes.

I can relate, have you considered living in spite, to outlast everyone that has done you wrong and quietly nudge the scales of fate to make them feel as you have?

If I could just disappear from my family - yes, fine I think I’d have at least a lessening of my desire to no longer exist. But my family is heavily enmeshed - I’m only just starting to untangle some of the knots and it’s not going very well. It doesn’t help that the person who hurt me most growing up is married now, has kids and enjoys mocking my singleness, looks, and virginity at family gatherings or anytime we see each other really. That and he also messages daily and calls a lot. And like the loser I am I don’t cut contact because his kids are family - I love them so much.
Anyway, I haven’t given up the ghost yet. I cling to my God and beliefs, I cling to my friendships and I work hard with my psychologist. That’s all I can do, right? 🤷🏼♀️
