Purchases That Made You Feel Like An Adult

1. A couch you didn’t assemble yourself
2. A mattress and bedding that actually lets you recover
3. Cookware that helps you cook a real meal
   
4. Travel you paid for upfront (and didn’t cram into a long weekend)
5. Outsourced help for one recurring chore you despise
6. Health moves you used to postpone like therapy, dental work, and preventative care
7. A table you can host around and the ritual that goes with it
   

Corey Was So Distraught About Something She Lost
A necklace Jeff gave her for Mother's Day fell apart on her. It had a heart charm and the names of their three dogs, one they just helped over the Rainbow Bridge. She found two charms, but two were missing. She thought she would never see them again, until she felt something weird in her bra. BOTH charms were in there. She was so happy. Have you ever stored or found something odd in your treasure chest?

Corey Chickened Out At The Mall
She was so excited to stumble on a food court circa 1989. It was busy, there was so much to choose from. She really wanted to try the Mongolian BBQ or the Japanese Build Your Own Bowl...but she was intimidated. Everyone knew what to get. How to make their sauce, what meat paired best with what veggies....she was overwhelmed and got a very plain salad. Have you ever succumbed to insecurity at a food court or somewhere else harmless?

Second Date Update
Cody is calling to see if he can get in touch with Whitney, a girl he met on Hinge and went on one date with. He thought she was hot and fun. He felt like there was chemistry just through their message. He asked her out for drinks and it was a blast. She was everything she appeared when they met in person. They had such a good time and he was pleasantly surprised when she invited him back to her place afterwards. All good stuff. So why the heck is she ghosting?
