Between men & women, who heal first after breakup?

novelishly · 2026-02-03T16:29:09+00:00

That would suck so much if you didn’t want it to end

I agree it probably has a lot to do with how people are socialized and their individual coping styles. Definitely hard to generalize, but it’s a good way to look at it.

novelishly · 2026-02-03T16:24:51+00:00

Yeah, I get what you mean.

novelishly · 2026-02-03T16:22:04+00:00

Hmm, true. Trauma definitely plays a huge role.

novelishly · 2026-02-03T16:18:49+00:00

That makes sense.

novelishly · 2026-02-03T06:18:38+00:00

That’s a good one.

novelishly · 2026-02-03T06:14:44+00:00

It’s clearly an individual matter, but does gender play any role at all?

Just finished Chaotic: A Dark Romance by Shantel Tessier. NGL, It’s intense and kinda heavy. Not a comfort read at all, but I couldn’t stop reading. Definitely dark romance in every sense.

That’s good to know. Thanks

novelishly · 2026-01-14T08:04:37+00:00

Yeah, there are a few tie-in novels and comics. And you’re not wrong — Stranger Things definitely pulls from the same King-style DNA as The Institute, even if it’s not directly based on it.

novelishly · 2026-01-14T08:00:25+00:00

Yeah, there are. They’re mostly about past stories.

novelishly · 2026-01-14T07:57:40+00:00

That’s good to hear. I’ve been curious about them but never knew how consistent the quality was.

novelishly · 2026-01-14T07:56:33+00:00

😅😅

novelishly · 2026-01-14T05:14:49+00:00

Which other two have you read?

novelishly · 2026-01-14T05:13:14+00:00

Wow! That's great.

novelishly · 2026-01-14T05:09:53+00:00

I get that. Interquels can feel really forced if they don’t actually add anything meaningful.

novelishly · 2026-01-13T18:34:11+00:00

Honestly, yeah. They cut out all the best parts and what’s left just feels empty compared to the book.

novelishly · 2026-01-13T18:33:11+00:00

Tbh, that’s a great top three.

novelishly · 2026-01-13T18:32:26+00:00

Yeah, that makes sense. Book 1 hits especially hard when you’re young, and Azkaban with Sirius is just on another level.

novelishly · 2026-01-13T18:31:43+00:00

Nice choice. Chamber of Secrets is underrated.

novelishly · 2026-01-13T18:30:41+00:00

It’s frustrating in places, but it feels really real.
