Sabrina Carpenter finally dropped Short n’ Sweet — the album that gave us bops like “Espresso” and “Please Please Please” — and it’s basically an ode to all forms, stages, and plights of love. Whether you’re feeling like a bad bitch with a rotating roster, or a lovesick puppy who’s desperate for the attention of the one person who won’t give it to you, then this album’s for you. It may not pass the Bechdel test, but it sure is a banger.
And it’s not just catchy AF. Although pop music is often dismissed as having little to no substantial meaning, Short n’ Sweet isn’t that — it’s filled with little gems about relationships, love, and heartbreak. In fact, there are lyrics in every song on the album that really capture the true essence of relationships. Here are the best relationship truths from every song on Short n’ Sweet.
Sometimes he’s not over his ex, and sometimes that ex is you. Be weary, because there’s nothing worse than being with a partner who’s still hung up on someone from his past — mostly because she might sing about it, making it even more embarrassing.
As soon as you brag about a man, he goes and does something to make you look stupid. Take note!
In relationships, everything can be going completely well but sometimes you need to remind them that they need to keep it cute… otherwise you won’t.
If we were logical beings, we would take someone ghosting us or ignoring us as a sign to forget about them. But of course, that’s not how it works — it’s usually the opposite.
Anytime someone tells you consistently not to worry about someone, odds are you should probably worry about them. Enjoy processing that.
Ah, the sad reality of the “chase.” Even when someone’s not good for us, the sex can sometimes be so, so good.
When you have someone who’s constantly hitting you up… you can say that you got them good.
This is text-book narcissist. And as someone who’s dated one, this is exactly how they are. They think they’re evolved and mature, but they’re only using these things as a cover for their true evil.
We’ve all dated or hooked up with someone that isn’t exactly who we see for ourselves. Gotta love a himbo!
As someone who’s been on birth control for nine years this line hit me a little differently than it might the average person. But sometimes the attraction to someone feels out of our control. Those are the best/worst.
Yikes… I mean, do I even have to explain this one?
It doesn’t matter if you have your girls around you, sometimes you need to be literally barred from your phone for your own sanity. Good luck, babe!
