It’s the third time this week that you have gotten into a fight with your partner. You’re feeling upset and misunderstood. Is this even the person for you? What if you are with the wrong person? Or what if…even worse..YOU’RE the problem? Your boyfriend from the 5th grade used to say the same stuff about you, after all. And your sister is always yelling at you about how self-centered you are. Maybe you’ll just grab those girl scout cookies in the freezer and spend yet another night Netflix binging “Emily in Paris” ALONE.
