I mean, the memes themselves are pretty relatable, if you can get past one flaw:

The funniest thing about this meme is that both girls are essentially the same person

But the meme has taken on a life of its own as the creators continued to release photos of the threesome showing how events progress.

It doesn’t seem like the girlfriend can catch a break, but everything changed with this new set of photos that were uncovered.

Honestly, this is more beautiful than any ending I could have come up with, and the Internet is here for it.

My favorite memories are the ones that never seem noteworthy—the ones you never tell at parties or recount to your family, the ones that don’t have a plot or a reason. There’s something in those excerpts of life, something so beautifully, achingly human.

These are the moments that matter the most.

These are the words we leave behind.
