🌹 Antecedently
Previously at LVRSNFRNDS.
We had a good chat about compersion (not to be confused with compression, please don’t do this at home kids…) which was the occasion to reflect on jealousy, envy and share actionable tips on how to deal with these emotions when they arise with lovers AND friends!
📽 Cinéma cinéma
Because that’ll make a great convo starter.
One thing leading to another, Salon’s topic had us think about Diabolique (1955) directed by Henri-Georges Clouzot. Highly recommended by the team!
This iconic, influential thriller centers around two women, a cruel boarding school headmaster’s wife and younger mistress, who plot together to murder him and hide the body in the school’s out-of-season pool, only to find the body go missing shortly thereafter.

📣 Coming soon
Just in case you’re considering joining us!
Elizabeth and Samy have joined forces and called a 🤙 Salon on Monday to ask ‘what are everyone’s sexting challenges?’ I can’t wait to attend and take notes of the many actionable tips that will be shared!
Oh and before I forget: Sunday at 🏕 Campfire, we will be peer-reviewing dating profiles of any members happy to get some help with theirs. This will be a first workshop of the kind and I bet it’s here to stay!
🤯 Mind-blown
I can’t stop thinking about this...
Wedding section - Dear lovers and friends, we are gathered here today to witness and celebrate the union of Yuri Tolochko and Margo in marriage. In the years they have been together, their love and understanding of each other has grown and matured, and now they have decided to live their lives together as husband and wife.
