Okay Script Breakers, let's have a little talk.


 We've all been there, right?


 Sipping martinis, dissecting our love lives, and wondering why we keep dating guys who treat us like an optional side salad when our best friends treat us like the main course.


It's a truth universally acknowledged: your best friend isn't just someone to hold your hair back after a few too many proseccos. 


They're your personal gold standard. 


The ultimate benchmark for anyone brave enough to enter your romantic orbit. 


After all, if he's not your biggest cheerleader, your go-to in a crisis, or someone who loves your "silly" dance moves, what's he really adding to the party?


Think about it: your bestie supports your dreams, has your back when things get messy, and understands that sometimes, the best intimacy is just sharing a pizza and a good laugh. 


They respect your boundaries and love every glorious, goofy part of you. 


So why, pray tell, would you accept anything less from the person you're sleeping with? 


The person you're building a life with?


It's time to stop settling for lukewarm love. 


If your friends are putting more effort into your well-being than your man, it's a sign, darling.


 A big, flashing, neon sign that you deserve more than just "tepid" affection.


 You deserve a love that makes you feel as supported, as cherished, and as seen as your favorite pair of shoes.


Ready to set your own standards and find the love you truly deserve?
