❝I don’t want to hear about the endless struggles to keep sex exciting, or the work it takes to plan a date night. I want to hear that you guys watch every episode of The Bachelorette together in secret shame, or that one got the other hooked on Breaking Bad and if either watches it without the other, they’re dead meat. I want to see you guys high-five each other like teammates on a recreational softball team you both do for fun. I want to hear about it because I know it’s possible, and because I want it for myself.❞

❝I think perfection is unrealistic and unattainable, and I felt freed when I let myself be who I am. Like, I’m gonna order red velvet pancakes. Life is fucking short and these are delicious.❞
