Absolutely! I used to love romantic comedies and now I kind of cringe by how much agency is removed from the woman by the end in so many. I get that they're fantasy, but it's like "that's an adult who chose someone else. You're going to have to let it go, not jump in a river as a grand gesture."

I was just stating truisms that would help a teenager move on. I think in terms of loss, having someone reject you can be healed with time and self-reflection. I think that if there are soul mates we absolutely have more than one (because if we had one and they lived in Alaska and we didn't we might never meet them)…

And to those people I say: My mom went out with my dad because she wanted to meet my dad's roommate. He badgered her into dating him. He had to badger her into marrying him.

They fucking hate each other. It sounds romantic from the outside, but it is not. cute. up. close.

A good portion of the comments:

First of all, you just cited Thought Catalog, which might be the first sign that you're in trouble.

oh WUT i went from a 4 to a 10 last year and everybody says i look fine. if 6 is fat then wtf is this life?

No people think that Thought Catalog is awful and perhaps people should look into the truth.

Uh, in that telling, she makes it really clear that he was doing all the sexual advancing on her.

Case in point: Jason Segel.

I have such a hard time wrapping my mind around this, but then I remember that actresses are supposed to be able to fit into designer sample sizes. Tina Fey's bit about this in Bossy Pants (where she talks about doing a fashion rag photo shoot) is fucking hilarious.

It's hard to be funny and starving to death at the same time.

fat with a ph...i heart that woman, and find her attractive as hell

"Last night i was having some wine, and uh, weed, and then ambien. Or, as I call it, tucking myself in."

Amy knows my life like nobody else.

I fucking LOVE AMY SCHUMER.

That's what they did to Margaret Cho and probably countless others. "Oh, this is based on your life, it's so great, you'll be perfect to play yourself in it... if you lose 20 pounds."

Before this: hated jimmy kimmel

American public health issues are being decided by a Playboy model vs Comedian grudge match.

What about specialists (cardiologists, surgeons, or nephrologists) who don't specialize in infectious disease or epidemiology?

Goddamn that first sentence is long.
