She wants attention; he gets it without wanting it.
She gets criticized for small mistakes; he is forgiven for not calling the entire day.
She gets judged to post a cringy caption on an Instagram post; he gets hyped on a business idea.
She is skeptical about putting on a dark shade of lipstick; he gets the finest perfume on his birthday.
She gets flowers once a year; he gets them twice a month.
She thinks twice before eating a brownie on the weekend; he gets pizza on every bad day at work.
She owns the phone; he owns the gallery.
She barely gets a birthday wish; he gets a birthday vacation.
She gets pat on back; he gets success party.
She barely feels loved; he gets it eternally and effortlessly.

You haven’t met her for long, go hug her 🙂

PS: Yes, she is the one reading this.
