“Sometimes giving someone a second chance is like giving them an extra bullet for their gun because they missed you the first time.”

“Sometimes it feels better not to talk. At all. About anything. To anyone.”

“Recognise the people who are dangerous to your emotional wellbeing before they damage you permanently. Trust your instincts. Have faith in your gut.”

“I’m slowly learning that some people aren’t good for me, no matter how much I love them.”

“You will search for me in another person, I promise.”

I have two problems in life:

“I am a different person to different people. Annoying to one. Talented to another. Quiet to a few. Unknown to a lot. But who am I, to me?”

i truly believe that a lot of what gets labeled as “yearning” on here is actually deep & profound & excruciating loneliness & i really think we would have more productive discussions about it if we could just call a spade a spade
