Love Island

Through high school, and my post-secondary education, I sat idly as my friends gathered weekly for wine, snacks, and new episodes of The Bachelor weekly. I was invited, but refused to watch because to me, the premise of the show seemed so unrealistic. And as both a realist, and pessimist of love, I wanted no part of any of it. A few summers ago, some friends said they were obsessed with a British show called Love Island.
