'You know all those wonderful sayings how ‘life dishes out lessons’ and ‘read the signs’ before you act? Yeah well, in matters of love I’ve subconsciously made it my mission in life to ignore all that great advice.
'I’m sure the popular song ‘I’ve Done All the Dumb Things’ was written about me. I charge in blindly into relationships, wearing my heart on my sleeve, only to get it broken. Rinse and repeat.
'Maybe I was destined to be this way? Or perhaps my mother cursed me when she named me Juliet, after Shakespeare’s tragic star-crossed lover. Either way, as I celebrated my fortieth birthday the penny finally dropped, and I decided to give up on love before it gave up on me.
'Only my best friend, Trey, the man I’ve been secretly in love with for almost my entire life, has other ideas.'
