‘If you’ve ever checked your ex’s social media at 2am – or their new partner’s LinkedIn (because it’s the only social profile you can access) – or are having sex with your partner knowing you’re going to leave – or if you can’t stop thinking about the one who broke your heart a decade ago – or if everyone thinks you’re the perfect couple but you’ve been drifting apart for years – or if you’re swiping to fill a void – then you’ve probably felt a smarting of shame. But let me tell you something radical: your darkest secrets, your most repulsively shameful thoughts, feelings, and behaviours: you’re not alone.’

‘Didn’t put it down once. Loved it with my whole heart’ – Julie Adenuga

It’s Complicated brings together more than 250 of the 1,500 stories anonymously submited to the project, Lockdown Love Stories, arranged by relationship status. From stories of exes, to being single, hooking up, breaking up, dating, situationships, friendships and relationships.

These aren’t love stories – they’re stories about love.
