"Cute dress!" "This? I literally found it in a dumpster behind Baja Fresh."

"If you’re not married, you’re doomed. This is such a load of BS. Relationship timelines are complicated and unpredictable and unique to each of us. There’s no age that determines your romantic future. Women don’t have an expiration date."
