Some on once asked me, “do you love me, or do you love the idea of me.”

The map-territory connection really hit it on the nose.

It’s a mistake we all make! I hope everyone has the chance to get that lesson over with young, like me 🙃❤️

You‘re so right. We only see staged moments that last less than five seconds. How can we compare our long–form life to that?

Yes! As a person who’s sharing her own romantic life, I feel responsible for some of these perspectives, so I try my best to keep it real!

Thanks so much for reading and sharing your pov 😘😘😘😘

Beautiful writeup Abi.

People looking for attention and craving go behind romanticizing love.

Real love doesn't need any validation.

Keep writing Queen.

Amazing as usual.

It sure is! My boss, @Cindy Gallop, pointed this out back in 2009 in a cultural-analysis-come-oracle-prediction.

Thank you so much for reading and sharing these reflections. ❤️❤️❤️
