Is this how love's supposed to feel?
feelings feelings feelings. feelings are not the same thing as emotions, keep that in mind, it won’t make it any easier, but it’s a good thought to hold on to. mondays are feelings days; where they come from, why we have them, what, if anything, we can do about them. why do we still keep feeling, we who have tried so hard to stop?

There is something about the word "mate"
that has always made me very uncomfortable. I’m sure Freud would have a lot to say about that.

Yes, yes I am. Is this discussion happening with POWERPOINT SLIDES. WHY YES, THAT IS ALSO TRUE, WELCOME TO THE FARCE THAT IS MY LIFE.
Love is fake, sex is real(er), humans are really into feeling good (take that however you want, you are probably right). Someone just said “erotic prestige.” Let that sink in for a moment.
Oh shit, now it’s prostitutes!

Would you all still be my friends
If I admitted how much I really love Paul Simon? Graceland is fantastic, is all I’m saying. I’m doing a reading about the construction of love in humans, and as I got to the section explaining the diffrence between passionate love and companionate love (don’t trust the former, it’s only a flash in the pan, also it is cocaine?), Crazy Love came on.
