Don’t Give Up Your Life

“Don’t let go of your personal life. Don’t stop hanging out with your friends. Don’t start slacking at work. Don’t start making everything about him. Because then, you’re not interesting, and let’s be realistic – there’s something about a man that enjoys that animalistic chase.” – Denise Vasi
