Earlier this week I saw a reel that said, “Sometimes the debrief of an event is better than the event itself.” Ever since, I’ve been thinking about how texting with friends is such a bolstering part of dating (and life in general). So, today on Big Salad, I’m sharing a love letter to the debrief, including screenshots of a few of the fun texts I’ve exchanged with friends while I’m getting ready for dates or actually ON them. Because the group text needs live recaps. Link in profile or go to joannagoddard.substack.com. ❤️🥗
