A mate from the gym shared here  with me after a messy breakup, mostly just to help me unwind for a while. One night when the house felt way too quiet and sleep was nowhere to be found, I decided to check it out and was surprised by how low-key the atmosphere was—not frantic or in-your-face. Fixed a drink, got settled, and finally felt my thoughts slow down after ages. Shared a few words with a new person at the end and it was brilliant. Just the break my system needed.
