Emily Madriga

You fall in love more slowly this time, more deliberately. You aren’t in a rush for it to be with just any person. You want to make it count.

There’s a cosmic universal law that you cannot judge yourself less harshly than you judge others.

If you want love, stop playing around with things that are not love.

You would never, ever, EVER be rude to a retail worker or a cashier.

She never touches you.

The cashier is not in charge of store policy.

Grown adults acting like they’re back in middle school. But with drinking! And sex!

Don’t mess around with people who aren’t looking for what you are. There’s nothing worse (or more common) people do when they are looking for love.

You have other hobbies (and a job) but nothing beats the sense of accomplishment you feel when you make something for someone you love and they can’t stop raving about it.

“I only eat fat-free foods.”

It’s not really that difficult to say, “I’m busy, lets talk later” instead of ignoring you.

I love you means never having to say, “you can have the last slice if you want.”
