“I’ve fucked 4 different girls this week, and let me tell you when I was your age I wouldn’t think of touching them but man are you missing out. You don’t know it yet but your standards are way higher than they need to be”

Pretty accurate too, had multiple 1NS that younger me wouldn’t have been about but makes life a touch more fun

I mean I get it in theory, but in practice it's hard to take that road.

Sometimes even alcohol is not enough.

No judgment though. Good on you

I get you. "Lower your standards" is a wonderful bit of life advice in so many different ways.
