Decenter Men is a raw, intimate AI co-created novel about a woman who realizes that her exhaustion with dating isn't confusion-it's clarity. After surviving a first love that felt like duty, competition, and emotional labor, she stops treating romance as rescue and starts building a life that doesn't require male approval to feel real. Set against family chaos, grief, art spaces, and hard-won self-respect, Decenter Men follows her shift from performing love to protecting her dignity-choosing creation, faith, and freedom over relationships that shrink her.
