One of the glorious things about being a person in the world is that you don't have to worry about whether or not someone else is trying to be creepy.

Don't let a friend make you feel publicly uncomfortable indefinitely just because they're probably a lesbian.

If just one person touches you without your permission, stepping back and saying clearly, "Please don't touch me" should get them to stop.

Don't beat yourself up over what you dream about.

If and when you do decide to share your experience with your husband, it should be because you feel ready to do so, not for any other reason.

You, too, will someday die, perhaps under inconvenient circumstances, at a time when you do not particularly wish to, and for causes that you cannot yet predict.

Knowledge of death is the beginning of wisdom.
