My brother gave me some good advice. He said, "What do you want to do? Do that because there are no rules when it comes to love. There are absolutely no rules. Do what you want to do." I think that was the most liberating piece of advice, because love really is unpredictable. There's trap doors, all kinds of scary stuff, caves and bears... You never know what's going to happen so you just have to do what you feel is right in the end.

My absolute favorite meal in Nashville is sweet-potato pancakes at Pancake Pantry.

I suffer from girlnextdooritis where the guy is friends with you and that's it.

If you're lucky enough to have something that makes you different, don't ever change.
