the chemistry between Nick and the girls' dad is so palpable. I'm hoping for a will-they-won't-they plot arc, an almost kiss, a misunderstanding that almost ends things, and then a dramatic fall into each other's arms as the music swells. strange a conservative ai would be so progressive though...

I can't pretend to understand fully what you're feeling, but I can attest to how healing and powerful nighttime ocean walks can be. someone once told me hearts can heal through salt water: sweat, tears, or the ocean. sometimes all three together. I hope you are healing and have a solid source of

I had a similar experience, thought I "knew" myself and was "grown up" but when I was no longer living in a constant state of anxiety and had the mental space to reflect, I noticed things I hadn't before, and my identity shifted. hopefully your discoveries are as positive as mine ended up being. 💚
