Two Stupid Things That Girls Do...


I read this book last month. It's a hilarious coming-of-age story set in 1970s Santa Barbara. The reason I bought it? Read Larry Doyle's quote on the cover. He knows funny. He wrote I Love You, Beth Cooper.

Anyway, this book reminded me of two stupid things that girls do...

We allow ourselves to have crushes without the expectation of reciprocity. Why do we do that to ourselves? Why don't we move on? Why don't we crush on people who actually like us back? Is that too convenient?

and...

We are baffled by moments when we don't see absolute perfection in people that we've put on pedestals.

Do guys do this, too?
