100 Prompts for The Hopeless Romantic Who’s Over It: Hilarious & Cynical Writing Prompts for the Former Hopeless Romantic Who Has Had Enough

You used to believe in soulmates. Now you believe in red flags and bad texting habits. You used to dream of love letters. Now you’d settle for a text with proper punctuation. You were once a hopeless romantic—now you’re just… hopelessly over it.

100 Prompts for the Hopeless Romantic Who’s Over It is the perfect writing companion for anyone who’s been burned by love, ghosted one too many times, or just realized that rom-coms are full of lies. These prompts will help you laugh through the heartbreak, vent about dating disasters, and maybe—just maybe—figure out if you still believe in love. (Spoiler: You probably do. But don’t worry, we won’t tell anyone.)

Perfect for former lovebirds, newly crowned cynics, and anyone who’s ever screamed “I AM NEVER DATING AGAIN!” (and then immediately re-downloaded a dating app).
