"Don't befriend me for a day, and leave me a month. Don't get close to me if you're going to leave. Don't say what you don't do. Be close or get away."

"Love is awful, painful, frightening. It makes you doubt yourself. It makes you say and do things you never thought you would do. It's all any of us want and it's hell when we get there! So, no wonder it's something we don't want to do on our own.
Love isn't something that weak people do. Being a romantic takes a hell of a lot of hope."
– Phoebe Waller Bridge, Fleabag

Just because someone hurts you, doesn't mean you can simply stop loving them. It's not the person's actions that hurt the most. It's the love. If there was no love attached to the action, the pain would be a little easier to bear.

"Lily, in the future... if by some miracle, you ever find yourself in the position to fall in love again... fall in love with me." He presses his lips against my forehead. "You're still my favorite person, Lily. Always will be."

"I inherited my mother's nose and the colour of her anger – crimson with a hint of green. She gave me her pearls and wrapped them with her sadness, and we called it a perfect birthday."

All of his sorrow won’t fit in his chest. It just burns like a fire in the pit of his chest. And his heart is a bird on a spit in his chest. How long, how long, how long?

They always say that I’ll find someone new, someone better.
But I don’t want someone else.
I want you.

I think what breaks my heart, isn’t that we didn’t work out. It’s that we walked away knowing neither one of us truly wanted to. It’s the fact that I always thought love was enough to fight for something, but that night I realized it’s not always enough. That no matter how much love there is between two souls, you need to set each other free. I’ll never forget how hard I cried that night. The hopeless romantic in me died.

“I miss you all the time. So much, that it’s turned into a dull kind of miss and I start to think I’m used to it. Then I’ll be out and I’ll see something funny and I wonder if you’d laugh about it too. And suddenly I’m thinking of your sarcasm, then your smile, then how your voice cracks when you’re trying to talk and laugh at the same time. And all that pain of missing you comes rushing back and I realize I haven’t gotten used to it at all.”

“What does it make me? That I have these memories and this disgust but I still want to pretend everything’s fine. Am I desperate? Am I foolish? Do I just hate change that much? Or do I just love them too much? Enough that it could destroy me? Enough for me to pretend what happened didn’t happen?”
- S. C. C.
