FYI #1: Love

At least once in your life, you will meet a person that you "can't live without".

Here is a big secret: you actually can. 

That is the big reason people get so miserable and pathetic after a break-up; they forget how to function without that other person. DON'T FORGET TO DO THINGS BY YOURSELVES, PEOPLE. Pay attention to what makes you happy. Not them. You. Try a new food and don't tell them about it.  Go to the theater by yourself and watch that movie they refused to see. Get a hobby - a real one, not the kind where you just make them presents. 

Most of you know this already. Here is the test: count how many times you said "we" today. You're automatically tagged if you say "we" instead of "me" often and unnecissarily.

I am absolutely not in love right now, but I am starting to be very in like. And ALREADY people are asking me where he is, what "we" are doing tonight, can I pass along a message, etc. etc.  It's a dramatic, collective shift in behavior that is happening way too soon and people need to cool it. 

My roommate is the absolute worst about this, in a cute way: "Where is he? Where are you guys going? What did you guys do? How is that whole thing? Is he your boyfriend??" 

Today I finally had enough and hollered,  "Jason, get out of my vagina! Seriously!"
