What being in love feels like

Si Blanche Gardin et Florence Foresti vous amusent moins vous aussi, découvrons ensemble Taylor Tomlinson (3 spectacles complets sur Netflix).


[...] this little girl, she's six years old, she comes running up to me in the kitchen, and she goes, "Taylor...what does being in love feel like?"

It's tough. How do you even begin to explain love to a child that young? How do you begin to explain romance and courtship? It's complicated.

"There's an app. You gotta download it and swipe. There's a whole résumé you have to fill out, take a picture from up here, Facetune it. That's another app, okay?"

But I didn't want to lie to her, and I wanted to relate it to something she would have understood, something she would have experienced in her young life. So I thought about it, and I said : "Being in love is sort of like... Okay. Do you remember when you got lost at the grocery store? That was scary, right? But then do you remember how you felt when you finally found your mom? How safe and happy and relieved you were... and how you ran up to her and you grabbed her leg... and then you looked up and it wasn't your mom? That's kind of what it's like out here, yeah. You think you know somebody. Turns out it's just some stranger with your mom's knees. Trust no one. Swipe left."
