If you use dating apps or have ever been on a date in the 21st century, you’re probably exhausted from swiping left, and dodging “u up?” from fuckboys or “hey” from boring matches. You don’t feel like you’re too picky (it’s called having standards!!) and when the average dating pool looks like overgrown frat boys […] More
When I had envisioned myself becoming a “responsible adult that cleans regularly,” the visual I had in mind was of the Monica Geller variety, who washed dishes in a wedding dress, made DIY magical cleaning solutions, and enjoyed vacuuming her vacuums.
