You know that thing when you're riding a train towards an uncertain destination, about to meet someone you've only spoken to online. You feel simultaneously sick to your stomach with anxiety but also with the slight tingling of butterflies. And your brain starts imagining the worst possible outcomes, your self esteem basically goes to shit. Especially since you know, because you're either texting or KIKing the person you're about to meet, that she's feeling exactly the same anxious nervousness.
And your brain comes to the inevitable realization: "Why the f-ck would anyone, ever, want to have something to do with me?"
That's when texts like these from close friends really help.
"You both seem to think that you're walking around invisible, when in reality you're both shining like beacons."
Yeah. Had an important business meeting today. Had to look my best, didn't I?
XOXO
