- You call your friends your ‘bitches’ without a hint of irony.
- Most of your mornings involve a montage of sorts, or a fully rehearsed mime and dance routine
- Everyone within a ten mile radius is fully informed of your romantic situation, and cares enough to frequently provide their ten cents by way of opinion.
- You see even your closest friends/family as little more than supporting characters in your personal narrative
- You can’t wait to be thirty
And flirty. And thriving.

- Your sad days are spent in pjs, knocking back vino and crying into your jumbo tub of Haagen Dasz
- You talk about film characters as if you know them
- Your hair looks sexy pushed back
- You’re willing to go to extreme lengths to find love, and expect the same in return

Like this sad, sad story
- You perceive your ‘current situation’ in life as a stage in a long journey, which will inevitably conclude in your own personal happy ending
