Fairly obviously, a scenario like this is probably a bit less likely to unfold these days just because of society’s evolved understanding about power dynamics at work. This said, most of us are, realistically, probably no stranger to a workplace crush , or to secretly messaging someone you fancy from outside of work for hours while you’re at the office, frantically flicking between desktop WhatsApp and a suspiciously sparse Google Doc whenever someone walks past.
One of the weirdest things about being single in your late twenties and early thirties is that half your mates still want to stay out all night every weekend and the other half are literal parents. The ones with kids are, I’m sorry to say, largely insufferable about it, mostly because as nice as children are, having them seems to convince you of the notion that you are the only person who has ever done so.
This is the type of rubbish break-up excuse you might still feasibly hear in 2023, and our friends who are also in the dating trenches remain our biggest support systems during sadness or disappointment, even if we are all just obsessed with our own issues , but our go-to outlet for sharing is the group chat, rather than emergency calls or meetings in Café Rouge. It makes for a far more convenient way to broadcast our problems. There are, after all, some things that never change.
