Why you should watch the same series as your friends (right now)

two girlfriends watching a series on the couch

I don't experience much these days. Well, little. When my partner came home last night after a long day at work (he did), I could tell that our neighbor friend was able to pull out the bike post from the bike path across from our house. There. Here. Take that. Those are some real hits at the drinks table. It's handy to know for that one time you move and you can park the moving truck right in front of our door.

My girlfriends are experiencing exactly the same. Nothing happened, no one to annoy you, nothing to gossip about, nada. But we have our collective pleasure: The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, so we have plenty to talk about. Kim's new nose, Taylor's drinking problem, Adrienne's spray tan stains... Meanwhile, we send each other photos of how the housewives look now (we're ten years and a few noses later and how small some of them are. In short, there's no shortage of conversation topics. Meanwhile, Lil texts me that a new season of Dix Pour Cent is ready, our favorite. And I'm really looking forward to that. Because it also adds a bit of depth.

1. You have conversation topics
See above.

2. You have shared jokes
Typical this and that and omg, did you see that, hilarious.

3. You have a partner in crime
Because she thinks it's totally okay if you binge six episodes again tonight.

4. She understands if you're really into the look of Yolanda Foster (now Hadid again)

5. In all that isolation, you still feel, however strange it may sound, a bit connected. Because even though you are physically apart, you have been in the same experiential world. So dear girlfriends: tonight let's binge and text in the meantime.
