zoe
so i may have girlbossed a little too close to the sun

taz
zoe
what does that even mean

zoe
faye's discovered that she really likes rock climbing
every time that i mention that i'm going to rock climbing gym she wants to come with me

taz
i don't see how this is a problem

zoe
it's not really
it's actually kind of cute
i don't know where bree found her but she's adorable, i love her

taz
i'm glad you guys are getting along
how are you finding rock climbing?
are you sore?

zoe
a little, but it's nothing insane
i know i've said this with everything else that i've been getting back to lately, but i really forgot how much i missed it. and i'm glad it's coming back to me a lot faster than skateboarding did. it seems like it's all muscle memory at this point

taz
that's good
hey, can i ask you something? you don't have to answer if you don't want to

zoe
now you're scaring me
but okay

taz
how did you end up dating someone who doesn't like any of the things that you like?

zoe
i mean he didn't hate everything that i like
he liked music. we bonded over that

taz
so a shared love of music was enough to get you to stop doing everything else you love?

zoe
it also didn't hurt that he was hot and i was lonely
but it's not like it happened overnight. at first, i stopped skateboarding so much because he said that he worried about me when i went off on my own. a little while after i stopped with everything else because for similar reasons

taz
that makes sense
was he good to you, at least?

zoe
lol no
bree and jay hated him
i have so many texts of bree telling me to throw the entire man away

taz
😂😂
yeah, that sounds like her
