THE SWEETEST THING

It’s ok to want romantic love. It’s ok to relish in the sweetness of romantic affection. The kind where noticing someone’s flaws seems impossible, and you suddenly start believing in the cosmic power of the universe. It’s affection different and perhaps more volatile from the kind our friends can offer, but no less life-affirming. It’s affection made up of moments that feel like treasured memorabilia.

Some say love is dead, but we disagree. That’s why we’re inviting our community to share their stories of the sweetest thing that a partner has done for them. This is a collection of tokens of affection, of those sweet things, the sweetest things, the things that still make you levitate slightly outside your body when they pop into your head and that you hold onto tightly.
