experiencing a break-up: PROS
- A luxurious reprieve from the onerous chore of leg-shaving
- An excuse to listen to deeply bummer music on repeat, preferably while staring at the ceiling
- You are allowed spend one (but only one!) evening on your porch drinking Bud Lite Chelada tallboys purchased from the gas station while saying melodramatic and self-indulgent things like, “I may as well stop plucking my eyebrows, amass several cats, live on Lean Cuisines, and take up needlepoint BECAUSE LOVE DOES NOT EXIST AND I AM DESTINED TO BE ALOOOOOOONE.”
- Good friends will bolster you with compliments, great friends will come over to bring you ice cream, and friends aiming for sainthood will try to hide your Smiths albums
- You get temporary license to write some truly awful, 11th-grade-caliber poetry
