This was so good, Carina. Perhaps my favourite of yours yet. The specificity especially was stunning.

I love that I found your thoughts on this because you articulate super well what has been ruminating in my head for the last few weeks about what I value in friendships and what works for me in searching for them. Thank you for sharing, I literally said "exactly what I was saying" out loud like 5 times!

I loved the way u wrote my mind, That’s exactly what I thought about the deep talks and real friends. I feel so real when I hang out with my frieds, just for the deep talk and know how their minds changed.
