i don’t search for a caregiver because i personally am not into that dynamic.

i had adequate parental attention as a biological child, so my mom carried me around everywhere.

i just wish to be picked up to prove i am small enough to be carried still lol. sounds weird i know. i just always feel like i take up more space than i am supposed to. i guess the caring aspect it brings is nice too.

if by weird you mean uncommon, it probably is uncommon as an adult, at least for the “typical” person that has no trauma or delays. weird doesn’t automatically mean bad or invalid though. if it would make you comfortable to be carried sometimes, then why not ask your potential partner about it. if they can’t meet that desire, then it’s up to you to decide whether to stay or not.
