Additional Commentary
Love at first sight is crap, we need to relinquish the storybook story from our romantic realities. Love is like yoga, you still do the downward dog even though you hate it.
It's important to be aware and attentive and to not go into love blindly.
For all the guys I've dated, thank you for taking me through what you took me through.
