“I know we’re going to grow up and we’re not going to be as close as we are now. We’re going to have our own lives and we’ll forget all the promises we made to each other. I know this. And it breaks my heart. But you know you can always count on me, right? You call, I’ll pick up.”

Whoever taught us that closure was sitting down and having coffee with someone to talk about what happened and why it all went wrong? Sometimes closure is just one conversation too long that opens up another can of worms and a whole lot of heartache. Maybe closure is just you, on your own, deciding it’s no longer important enough to be in your life.

“One day you will have had a really good day and you will call to tell me about it but when I answer the phone I’ll be crying, and suddenly you’ll feel angry. You will think, “why does she always have to be so sad? Why must she seek so much attention?” You’ll ask, “what’s wrong?” but you won’t listen. You might even put the phone down and make yourself a cup of tea. When the call goes silent you’ll come back and say, “I’m sorry you’ve had such a rough day.” And I’ll say, “ I’m sorry I keep going on about me. How was your day?” And you’ll start talking but you’ll talk a little too fast because you didn’t want to listen but now you feel guilty. And in the end, this is how we will go, with a toxic mix of guilt and indifference. And in the end, I hope you don’t blame me because I won’t blame you. I won’t blame you.”

can you please write about long distance love. i'm dating a boy who lives abroad, I'm seeing him again in a couple of weeks but all i can do is think about him and honestly i think i could die from the pain. i know it's not feasible to live like this but even loving him through the distance means more to me than anyone here.

“I didn’t need you, you idiot. I picked you. And then you picked me back.”

““At the end of the day, the questions we ask of ourselves determine the type of people that we will become.””

“i look at you and i just love you, and it terrifies me.”

“Just know, you won’t ever have to force what’s real. Ever.”
