“The truth that I found out in that short span at the end of May did what truth does. It set me free. It released me from the stubborn love I had been holding onto. It released me from the fantasy of who Jose was. And it allowed me to finally start to move on.”

quote
“If we value just romantic love, or value romantic love higher than other loves, then we isolate. We stick with our partners. And when our partners, human beings with flaws and limits, inevitably do not live up to our collective fantasy, we are bereft. So, we decide to go on a diet, to go shopping, to drink, to do drugs, to buy new cars. We buy shit to fill the hole. And the hole is there because we bought the lie that romantic love is the only love that really matters. But what if we valued all love as equal? What if we treated our friends like the loves of our lives? What if we treated our partners as human beings who we loved, but not “more” than another love in our life?”

“I stood there and let my breath get taken from me. The astounding, shocking, unexpected beauty of the world filled me. I stood there. Feeling something like joy, which was something I had forgotten about, too.”

“A cynic once told me, “Every marriage has one liar and one fool.” He shared this with me over a cigarette in the corner of a loud party in New York City. I laughed out loud, shoulders shaking, and mercilessly made fun of his pessimism.
I didn’t believe this. I couldn’t believe this because I was married and wasn’t a liar or a fool. I said as much to my friend as we finished up our smoke, and then promptly forgot the
comment.”

“I always thought that I would take the high road. But I am so glad I didn’t. Because what I learned, as I sent pictures of Beyoncé with her Lemonade bat and said things so mean they felt like the devil himself was typing, is that one must defend one’s life.”
