Wrap parties can be really sad, actually, disorienting.

Women often postpone their lives, thinking that if they’re not with a partner then it doesn’t really count. They’re still searching for their prince, in a way. And as much as we don’t discuss that, because it’s too embarrassing and too sad, I think it really does exist.

Sadness flies away on the wings of time.
