Coffee and a Conversation

As Told Over Brunch is a home for intelligent discourse from the twenty-something perspective - so the stuff you gossip about over mimosas on Sunday morning or over takeout on your friend's couch when happy hour ends too early. We love chatting about our lives, whether it be the relationships we’re building (or destroying), lessons we've learned at work, struggles at school, growing pains we've felt, or even the food we’re talking over.

Unless you're the rare asexual, we've all at some point felt something for someone. And sometimes it works out, but when it doesn't, those feelings don’t just evaporate. The first law of thermodynamics (conservation of energy) applies even in love.

Well, sometimes. Sometimes it's easy to get over someone. I can list my middle school crushes without any twinges (though I did date the most popular girl in my middle school for eight hours; why didn't that work out?).

Because three years ago, in a circle of strangers, we named each other as our respective crushes.

Because one night later you came home with me because you said you left your keys in my apartment. And I stupidly offered to pay for your cab.

Because you called me the next day and asked to get lunch before you left town.
