Yeah, yeah I know.. Been there. Done that. Friday night, with a glass of wine. It’s quarantine time. You miss your boyfriend, you miss your girlfriend or you don’t have one (haha same) and you suddenly want to watch something that reminds you these old days. The days when true love seemed possible.
