Imaginary Strangers (Dangerous Strangers, #1)

I read an article once, about how emotional crying releases oxytocin in your brain to make you feel better,

“It’s easy to romanticize the past or play the what-if game, and some people spend their entire lives doing that, but in my experience, there are more productive ways to work through these kinds of things,”

If someone chooses to exit your life, you shouldn’t stalk them—you should thank them. They did you a favor. Why more people don’t realize this is beyond me.

Now, making someone sorry they betrayed you? Taking back your power? Living your best life as a middle finger to an ex? I could get behind a song like that.

It’s not our fault we’re the way we are. Society tells women we’re supposed to do it all, have it all, and be it all. But what society doesn’t tell you is that’s an impossible order.”

In my experience, it always pays to be friendly with anyone working a front desk, valet stand, or any other kind of customer front line.

They say the devil you know is better than the devil you don’t. I used to agree.
