312. Rough Stuff: Teresa Lee’s Teenage Crush Game
🕑 Added 2020-08-21 13:00:05 +0000 UTC
“The more I try, the harder it seems / But you’ve turned around, blocked me out, / deliberately trying to bloody my back / Falsely sweet words, masking your soul, / I’m trying to get past this. / Plastering on a fake plastic smile when all I want is to break down and cry.” - Teresa Lee, teenage poet.
Bridgett and Sarah stare unblinkingly into the void of teenage crush strategies, angelfire webpages, Sadie Hawkins dances, and Teresa is our guide. And frankly, the poem is off the chain. Like real, angsty, good stuff. So, listen in, you weirdos. Also, Teresa may or may not have a ghost.

The hard no is so much kinder. I can't tell you how many times in my adolescence (and college years, let's be honest), I took someone's "I'm not looking for a relationship right now" or similar non-yes as reason to hope and be patient.
