Bennifer is back, baby, and this refreshed 2.0 couple are fulfilling all my soulmate dreams.
A few weeks ago you may recall my Sex/Life column. It was meant to be a review but ended up being me pining over my ex-boyfriend *sigh*.
Choices were made, an hour-long phone convo with my BFF was had and just when I thought I was over my quarter-life crisis, The Chainsmokers Closer came on shuffle, Bennifer pictures filled my IG feed and I was left wondering how society went from dating your ex being a bad thing, to now be a goal.
I have a soft spot for The Chainsmokers' Closer because the lyrics "four years no calls, now you're looking pretty in a hotel bar" have stuck with me since the day I heard them. The whole song is about reuniting with your ex for a night of nostalgic passion - sung with such fairytale magic that I'm convinced one day I too will run into an ex-boyfriend while I'm sitting pretty in a hotel bar.
If you're a realist, you may think the chances of that are basically zero but as a hopeless romantic, feel free to join in with my daydream. But whether you like it or not there is always that one person you wish the stars would align for – and I bet you're thinking of them right now.
