Listen "Chapter 8: Not The Chosen One "
Episode Synopsis
Lucien really said, “What if I gave you unwavering loyalty, endless sarcasm, and my entire heart?” and the universe replied, “Cute, but no thanks.” 🫠 This week we’re diving into the pain and comedy of being not the chosen one—aka loving someone who will never love you back.Because let’s face it, unrequited love is basically character development in its messiest form. We’ve all been the person holding onto hope while watching someone else get picked instead, and it is the worst kind of humble pie. But maybe there’s something to learn in the ache (besides how to perfect your fake smile at their engagement photos).So grab your emotional support coffee, because we’re talking Lucien, second choices, almosts, and why sometimes not being chosen might just be the plot twist you didn’t know you needed.
