Chelsea Fagan

She was shallow, superficial, clothes-obsessed, emotionally needy, financially illiterate, and more concerned with the man she was or wasn’t dating than literally anything else in her life.

Getting into arguments about which country is better is just about the worst thing you can do.

All this techie does is scowl at people, tell everyone to clean up after themselves, smoke cigarettes, and do an excellent job.

You date people who have their stuff together, emotionally, and are long past the point in your life where you want to be waiting by your phone for days on end to see if your semi-boyfriend will text you back.

We always reserved the time and energy for each other that people are so used to associating with romantic relationships. We defied the rules about what you do with your friends, and what you do with your partners. In many ways, we have been partners. We’ve supported and cared for one another more deeply than a lot of our “real” relationships.

Supermarket cheese aisles depress you in a profound, almost existential way.

Immediately wanting to order the pink, bubbly, fancy cocktails, but feeling judged by the bartender and everyone around you for being so predictable. (But it’s delicious!! And pink!!)

With them, it won’t be some race for who can seem to care less. The silence of your phone will no longer torment you with questions of what you did wrong.
