such a beautiful piece! I just got back from studying abroad in rome yesterday and randomly decided to read this essay on substack and the last pic is literally the street my school was on! so insane and funny and feels like a sign to see <3

love this journey for you! it definetely took me some time to understand as well, that in order not to get hurt I need to be myself even if many men told I am "too much" or "too dramatic" or "too emotional" and have "too high standards". well they can go find less. i will stay myself and that same "too muchness" will filter those people out who are not ready to date and commit and actually open up emotionally.

love the piece <3

This is such an incredible piece, sooo articulate and i can sense the weirdness looming in between the sentences they seep right through and smile at me ! Love your work !
