Yay, my best so far.

Really hoping there are legions of people consternated that “first date” doesn’t fit
I tried to make “wistful pining” fit

Comment Award to Sally and Sam !
This puzzle literally describes my life and yet it took me so long to get!!
Took a break came back and figured it out in one guess.

SAME! I actually saved it twice and the third time I got it right away.
Sally (and everyone else who does these puzzles) can I make a request?
Can we keep the individual words to 7 letters or less? Because more than 7 letters and the words doesn’t fit on a mobile screen. And the game won’t let you rotate your phone horizontally to see the word. So it’s really hard/annoying to figure out what a word is when you can’t even count how many letters are in it.
Please and thank you!!
This is useful feedback that I will share with the team, thank you! Also, I think shorter and snappier phrases are perhaps more fun?
There’s a potential workaround to open the page in desktop mode on your phone, and then you can zoom out to fit a whole word in, but that would make things a bit tiny!
wow. what an absolute call out.

hit me where it HURTS
My goodness, that middle word took me ages to get any green!
Was I ever going on a tangent before it clicked !
And props to those playing on a phone, that’s just amazing.
Thanks Sally !
I don’t know if I’ve ever felt dumber, I can’t figure this out at all. I’ve got the first word and can’t even get close on the other two. I’ve tried variations of ‘processing conversations, therapy, dates, sexting, emotions, love, fucking’ and nothing is clicking/working. I’ll shamefully take a hint.
realized if you just put in enough wrong words you finally get the answer! I did word one, then word three, then finally it clicked with word 2.
truly can’t believe I documented this humiliating experience

I appreciate you taking us on this ride with you, and also providing excellent word suggestions for future puzzles!
I also got the first word and was completely stuck on the others. In desperation I did a search of AS with the first word. It felt a little like cheating, but not enough to deter me. And lo, one of the first articles that came up helped me figure out the other two words! (And Sally listed it on the answer).
Was stumped all of yesterday, came back today PREPARED.
