Because nothing sucks worse than feeling alone
no matter how many people are around.

Nobody wants to hear this,
but sometimes the person
you want the most,
is the person that you are
best without.

If you want to know where your heart is,
look where your mind wonders.

and my eyes tell the secrets my lips will never say.

Why can't we get all the people together in the world
that we really like and then just stay together? I guess
that wouldn't work. Someone would leave. Someone
always leaves and then we have to say goodbye. I hate
goodbyes. I know what I need. I need more hello's.

It's funny how people change when they have alcohol in their veins.
You see who they really are.
You know deep down inside there's nothing hiding behind their eyes.
It's just them without any lies.

Broken hearted, once again. Will this ever end?
Is there someone out there for me?
It doesn't even seem like it.

There's always gonna be that one thing you wish for but never get.
That one mistake you can never take back.
& most of all, that one memory you would do anything for,
just to have it again.

The best things in life are unseen.
That's why we close our eyes when we
cry, laugh, kiss, and dream.

It's only after we've lost everything that we're free to do anything.

i wish you were here
but your there
and there doesn't know how lucky it is.

No matter how hard i try,  i just can't bring myself to say good bye to you.

She straightens her hair,
applies her make-up,
smooths out her clothes,
and takes one last look in
the mirror just to see what he will never want.

why did i let him get to me,
when i know that everyone always leaves?

Live the life you want to live. Be the person you want to remember.
Make decisions, make mistakes. If you fall, at least you tried.

It was funny that you could know someone for years
but still discover something you never noticed before.

There was something inside her that longed
to be desired, to be cared for and protected,
to be listened to and accepted without judgment.
To be loved.

under the streetlight, dancing by herself,
she is waiting for a car to stop, a star to fall,
someone to change her life

Nobody can find you when you're nowhere.
Living on the other side of hope.

I am hostage to my own humanity.

So here's everything I ever wanted to tell you:
no one has ever gotten me like you do.

"You get a strange feeling when you're about to leave a place, I told him, like you'll not only miss the people you love but you'll miss the person you are now at this time and this place, because you'll never be this way ever again."

I pour kerosene on everything I love and watch it burn.

if you do it, you'll regret it.
if you don' do it, you'll regret it.
either way you're going to regret it,
so you might as well just do it.

And I just want to get mugged at knifepoint
to get cut enough to wake me up
cause I know that I don't want to die
sitting around watching my life go by

You have this little mindset
that you're not gorgeous
and that you'll break any mirror you come in contact
with because they all know you're not perfect
and you're not running from anyone but yourself.

and there wasn't anything wonderfully amazing about him
but there was something that she just couldn't resist

why do you do this to me?
why do you do this so easily?
you make it hard to smile because you make it
hard to breathe.
why do you do this to me?

you've made yourself a bed
at the bottom of the blackest hole
and convinced yourself that it's not
the reason you don't see the sun anymore.

we sat down
a couple cups in between us
conversation’s become meaningless
all I really wanted to do
was close that space in between us.

i'd like to have my way with you
i'd like to take my time with you
i'd like to lose my mind with you
i'd like to share my knife with you.

the streetlights flicker and then they fade
like every good intention that i've had

she'll destroy us all before she's through
and find a way to blame
somebody else.

Once you are just another cut away,
Now your scarred, And these scars won't fade.
I still know, you don't get something for nothing
Without giving up your soul.

lies are just pretty words
that sound perfect.

is this the life that you lead
or the life that's lead for you
will you take the path that's
laid out before you.

We've got all night just to make it all right
Would you take a walk with me?
I'll give you all I've got, just spare me your time,
And I promise you won't want to leave.

How could I know that everything you say
are lies about devotion and desire?
And I know the spark inside your eyes
was just the match I used to set myself on fire.

Dear Heart,
So black and I know that you're broken
From words that she has never spoken.
So now our lives are laced with a tragedy.

can you feel your heartbeat racing?
can you taste the fear in her sweat?
you've done this wrong, its too far gone
these sheets tell of regret.

Our real discoveries come from chaos,
from going to the place that looks
wrong and stupid and foolish

"Along the way, I’ve learned that you can’t let anyone in too far and you can’t trust endlessly. The biggest mistake you can make is to care or love someone more than yourself, because then you are just setting yourself up for disappointment. Boundaries are necessary so that you can protect yourself, because once you’re broken, you’ll never be fully fixed."

On the outside, you know you're not that same naive kid anymore. You've been through too much too fast, but deep down, at your core, there will always be a part of you that rejects reality, that is eternally hopeful.

Ten bucks says you'll be crawling into bed with me,
putting your hands where they don't belong.
And ten bucks says you'll be putting your
lips where they don't belong either,
but ten bucks says I won't say no.

You kiss a hell of a lot better than you listen.
Maybe that's why I can't get enough of you.
It's true when they say old habits are hard to break,
But you'll always remain my most tempting mistake.

And you get to a point where
you stop feeling sorry for yourself.
You realize no one's going to save you,
so you have to save yourself.
You turn your life around,
not knowing where you're going,
just knowing that you'll do anything,
anything to be happy again.

The saddest things is that people get so used to their image, they grow attached to their masks. They love their chains. They forget all about who they really are. And if you try to remind them, they hate you for it. They feel like you're trying to steal their most precious possession

it's hard going back to people who don't know you anymore

"You aren't worth my time,
and I know I can do better than you"
She screamed at him.
"Then why are you still here?" He replied

It hurts so bad to be alone
and knowing that he isn't.

Feelin' like I just lost a friend.
Hope you know it’s not easy,
Easy for me.
- Taylor Swift, Breathe

Never wanted this, never wanna see you hurt.
Every little bump in the road I tried to swerve.
But people are people,
And sometimes it doesn’t work out,
Nothing we say is gonna save us from the fall out.
-Taylor Swift, Breathe

"no matter what you do or say,
there's nothing you can do to
make people understand you."
-Kurt Cobain-

im sorry i'm not like those girls who drop their dignity and morals at your feet.

live by the sun
love by the moon.

and kisses are a far better
fate than wisdom.
~ e e cummings

sometimes no matter how much it hurts.you just have to give it all up,
you have to move on,you can't stay where you are,
giving it up may hurt,but staying where you are hurts more.

There is nothing like returning to a place
that remains unchanged to find the ways
in which you yourself have altered.

“All our young lives we search for someone to love. Someone who makes us complete. We choose partners and change partners. We dance to a song of heartbreak and hope... all the while wondering if somewhere, somehow, there's someone perfect... who might be searching for us.”

"Have you felt it too? Have you seen how your best friends love everything about you- except the things that count? And your most important is nothing to them; nothing, not even a sound they can recognize."

"Let me tell you this: if you meet a loner, no matter what they tell you, it's not because they enjoy solitude. It's because they have tried to blend into the world before, and people continue to disappoint them."

"Although I hadn't seen him in more than 10 years, I know I'll miss him forever.
I never had any friends later on like the ones I had when I was twelve. Jesus, does anyone?"

"I'm afraid of time... I mean, I'm afraid of not having enough time. Not enough time to understand people, how they really are, or to be understood myself. I'm afraid of the quick judgments or mistakes everybody makes. You can't fix them without time. I'm afraid of seeing snapshots, not movies."

What she wanted was really two things: to be elsewhere, and to be somebody else. Or at least a version of herself that had made better decisions, that had thought more clearly

"And then I felt sad because I realized that once people are broken in certain ways, they can't ever be fixed, and this is something nobody ever tells you when you are young and it never fails to surprise you as you grow older as you see the people in your life break one by one. You wonder when your turn is going to be, or if it's already happened."

"What I want is to be needed. What I need is to be indispensable to somebody. Who I need is somebody that will eat up all my free time, my ego, my attention. Somebody addicted to me. A mutual addiction.

I have nothing to do but remember people
who now forget me.

Is it worth it?  Probably - but that doesn't make the end any easier,
doesn't explain the comedown, doesn't explain why all that lifts me off
must fall down to the depths.  And it doesn't make the waking hours any easier.

And life, after a while, is obsolete, when everything you cared about
has gone to dust already.

no matter where you run, you just end up
running into yourself.

Just a dangerous dangerous thing
But then every night’s still so much fun
And you’re still out at dawn
I’m clinging on to the wrong ideas but
I never regret anything I’ve done.

I'm tired of being bored,
I'm through with the headaches at night
And my hands, they tremble like earthquakes,
Under the table, under the daytime sky,
Good fucking bye.

I wanted you for nothing more
than hating you for what you were.

I don’t know why I care so much, when I wish I didn’t.
I really shouldn’t care at all.

II put on an act sometimes, and people think I'm insensitive.
Really, it's like a kind of armor because I'm too sensitive.
If there are two hundred people in a room and one of them doesn't like me, I've got to get out

Yeah, truth can lead to solace or a lifelong bender
It’s like wading through a wasteland where a town you loved once stood
You just cry each time you think of when times were good

Why are people always leaving?
I think you and I should stay the same.

Sometimes you have to look twice to realize the beauty.

Eyes light up when we talk about the past
God, i miss those songs we used to sing,
talking like getting away would be the greatest thing
like that's really going to set this free.
but sometimes i just cant sleep.

Well everyone I know has got a reason to say,
"We could put the past away."

The best is when you say the worst is over
It's like saying we had luck with a 3 leaf clover
And you kept saying that over and over
And I still catch you looking over your shoulder
And it's okay.
I know the only times you really loved me
Were the times you weren't sober.

"Blessed are the hearts that can bend; they shall never
be broken." But I wonder if there's no breaking then
there's no healing, and if there's no healing then there's
no learning. And  if there's no learning then there's no
struggle. But struggle is a part of life.  So must all hearts
be broken?"
-one tree hill

More than anything,
all I have ever wanted
is to be close to someone.
More than anything,
all I have ever wanted
is to feel as if I wasn't alone.

I can't say I'm proud of my life, but I can say I'm
proud that I've learned. I've learned that I can't rely
on eve ryone, but I can't expect everyone to hurt me.
I know some things don't work out, but I know
everything that has been for the better. I can't
guarantee I'll be able to walk around with a smile.
but I know where I've been, and where I'am
going. I know who I am and who my friends are,
I've had some tough stuff thrown at me. but I've
gotten by. I'm not one to complain so I'll keep trying
and in the end... I'll know I did my best.

It's what life is, it's a series of rooms, and who we get stuck in those rooms with, adds up to what our lives are.

We are selfish, base animals crawling across the earth, but 'cause we've got brains, if we try really hard, we can usually aspire to something that is less than pure evil.

Everyone keeps saying,
"Nothing helps but time."
Time is all I own.

At some point, you have to make a decision.
Boundaries don't keep other people out, they fence you in.
Life is messy. That's how we're made.
So, you can waste your life drawing lines.
Or you can live your life crossing them.

Do you need anybody?
I need somebody to love.
Could it be anybody?
I want somebody to love.

There's a part in everyday,
Where I lie to myself and say that it's okay
Cause if I don't I think I'll go insane
But the truth is, I only have myself to blame
+ The Spill Canvas

Best friends aren’t real best friends until they love you for who you are,
not what they want you to be.
They are always there for you no matter what.
Even if you’re fighting and they hate your guts,
if you need them, they will be there, no questions asked.
They can always make you laugh even when you are feeling your worst.
They understand you and you don’t even have to tell them.
They are the only ones who know what “I’m okay” really means,
when you’re not.
They couldn’t care less about what other people think of you and when you disappoint them,
they will let you know about it.
They are the only people on earth who could completely destroy you,
but would never dream of it.
They are the ones you spend all your time with.
You laugh with them.
You cry with them.
But most of all,
best friends are the people you need in your life,
beside you at all times.
They are the people you would be lost without.

At the end of the day,
when it comes down to it,
all we really want is to be close to somebody.
So this thing where we all keep our distance
and pretend not to care about each other,
it's usually a load of bull.
So we pick and choose who we want to remain close to,
and once we've chosen those people,
we tend to stick close by,
no matter how much we hurt them.
The people that are still with you at the end of the day,
those are the ones worth keeping.
And sure, sometimes close can be too close.
But sometimes,
that invasion of personal space,
it can be exactly what you need.
-Grey's Anatomy

slowly but surely, drowning in a depression
that i didn't want to realize i had. i never told a soul.
i smiled. i laughed. i joked.

The reason people find it so hard to
be happy is that they always see the past
better than it was, the present worse than it is
and the future less resolved than it will be.

Because once upon a time, we were best friends. And, yes, there's been a lot of bad stuff in between. But none of that matters right now, okay? You need me, I'm there. Any time, any place, anywhere

I have a hundred things I'd like to say to you.
Some scream at you, some whisper. You're
a jerk. I'm about to cry. I know I'm too
much for you. Blah, blah, blah. You're a
real douche bag, but I still think you're cute.

you think you want to die,
but in reality
you just want to be saved.

All the adversity I've had in my life, all my troubles
and obstacles, have strengthened me... You may
not realize it when it happens, but a kick in the teeth
may be the best thing in the world for you.
- (walt disney)

Because some men aren't looking
for anything logical, like money.
They can't be bought, bullied,
reasoned or negotiated with. Some men
just want to watch the world burn.

Have you seen her with her friends?
That's who she really is on the inside,
not the under confident, self-conscious,
quiet girl everyone pictures her to be.

I'll be back so soon you won't have time to miss
me. Look after my heart; I've left it with you.

All these years I've

my heart, now how
do I melt it?

No matter what anybody tells you,
words and ideas can change the world.

Optimistic people are here
to keep the pessimistic people
from wallowing in misery.
Pessimistic people are here
to remind the optimistic
of a little fact called reality.

I believe that everything happens for a reason.
People change so that you can learn to let go.
Things go wrong so that you appreciate them
when they're right. You believe lies so you
eventually learn to trust no one but yourself.
And sometimes good things fall apart so better
things can fall together.

What would happen if we kissed? Would your tongue
slip past my lips? Would you run away? Would you stay?
Or would I melt into you? Mouth to mouth, lust to lust;
spontaneously combust.
- if we kissed (fiona apple)

You said, let's dance to no music.
I replied, let's love without fear.

I'm weird with relationships.
I think I know what I want, & then I run.
I think I run because I'm scared,
I'm scared that I might get hurt.
Or maybe I just haven't found someone
who I know is worth being hurt for

Friendship isn't a big thing
- it's a million little things.

No one knows you like a person with
whom you’ve shared a childhood. No
one will ever understand you in quite
the same way.

I guess we are who we are for a lot of reasons.
And maybe we'll never know most of them. But
even if we don't have the power to choose where
we come from, we can still choose where we go
from there.
- (the perks of being a wallflower)

Maybe we like the pain.
Maybe we're wired that way.
Because without it... I don't know,
maybe we just wouldn't feel real.
What's that saying?... Why do I
keep hitting myself with a hammer?
Because it feels so good when I stop.
- (grey's anatomy)

Times were tough, but the memories remain.
Situations were rough, but we overcame.
Side by side; together we grew.
Cause when it's said and done, I'll look back
on a friend like you.

Being grown up isn't half as fun as growing up,
these are the best days of our lives.
The only thing that matters is just following your
heart & eventually you'll finally get it right.

in the end, we only regret the chances we
didn't take, the relationships we were afraid to
have and the decisions we waited too long to make

Trust me, I know how it feels.
I know exactly how it feels to cry
in the shower so no one can hear you.
I know what it's like to wait for everyone
to be asleep so you can fall apart,
for everything to hurt so bad you
just want it all to end.
I know exactly how it feels.

time. time changes everything.
that's what people say; it's not true.
doing things changes things. not doing
things leaves things exactly as they were.
[House]

Ev'ry so often we long to steal
To the land of what-might-have-been
But that doesn't soften the ache we feel
When reality sets back in

I'm through with playing by the rules of someone elses game

A bad idea, we all knew from the start.
But, still we insisted, wanted to know what it felt like.
Now, we experienced the thrill & we got all the laughs,
But in the end there were tears.

Sometimes I find myself
glancing at the clock,
Wondering what you’re doing
at the exact moment

Strength is nothing more then
how you hide the pain.

He grabbed my hand.
Half of me wanted to scream not to touch me,
and half wanted to beg him not to let me go.

I love the chase, 
I can't like someone, without having to work for it,
if they're right in front of me,
it's not worth it.

I can't really offer you much.
But I can offer you that empty spot of carpet right next to me.
I can offer you late nights, of you and I sitting together.
I can share with you my mind, and my words,
and my music, and maybe it'll move you, like you move me.

He's like a song that's stuck in my head, you know?
No matter how hard I try to get rid of it, it's always there.
And even though I try out other songs in my head,
I know it won't work, because in the end,
I always come back to that one tune.

It seems like the simplest concept.
Just push everyone away, and you'll never get hurt.
However, the simplest isn't always the most effective.
Someday, someone is going to find their way in,
and they're going to leave you on your knees.

Actually, no I am not okay.
I need you to give me a hug.
I need to be told I am worth something.

&& I'm the girl,
the one thats always lost.
the one with the fake smile
&& the girl who seems to be so
strong, but daily continues to break.
that girl who's always there and
seems to no problems of her own.
the one who holds back tears until
she's off the phone. Im that girl.

one look; i thought you were cute.
one hour; and i devolped a little crush.
one day; i couldn't stop thinking about you.
one night; you're the only one in my dreams.
one week; i'd fallen for you and hard.
one month; you've done something to hurt me.
one year; i still think about you sometimes. <3

my head is saying "who cares about him?"
but my heart is screaming "you do you idiot"

sometimes its tough being a girl.
if you hate a pretty girl, people will think your jealous.
if you like an older guy, people will call you a slut.
whenever you get into an argument with your best friend
no one will care and say oh, you'll be friends tomorrow.
and when you fall for the right person,
everyone else thinks he's wrong for you.

Twenty years from now you will be
more disappointed by the things you didn't do
than by the ones you did do.
So throw off the bowlines.
Sail away from the safe harbor.
Catch the trade winds in your sails.
Explore. Dream. Discover.
~ Mark Twain

Just because today is a terrible day doesn't mean
tomorrow might not be the best day of your entire
life. You just have to wake up and get there.

Back in school they never taught us
what we needed to know
like how to deal with despair
or someone breaking your heart

 yeah they talk about her ..
she smiles like she's tough ..
she says ''hey can you talk a little louder ?? ''
my heart isnt broken enough

you dont realize how strong a person
is until you see them at their weakest moment

I'm gonna stay 18 forever ... so we can stay like this forever <3

worrying is a waste of time. it doesn't change anything, it just messes with your mind and steals your happiness.

on the way; broken hearts and bitter best friends, car problems and bad hair days, but everyday she smiles and moves on. because nothing in the world is going to stop her.

dry your eyes, clear your mind. you just gotta take it one day at a time. dust off your heart, take it off the shelf- you gotta remember to love yourself.

Change is a funny thing.
We're never quite sure what we're becoming, or why.
Then one day we look at ourselves and wonder
who we are, and how we got there.

I’m scared, completely terrified actually.
Scared of what will happen if i see you again.
& Scared of what will happen if I don't see you again.

Because you're hoping you're wrong.
And everytime he does something
that tells you he's no good, you ignore it.
And everytime he comes through and
surprises you, he wins you over,
and you lose that argument with yourself,
that he's not for you.

When people walk away from you, let them walk.
Don't try to talk another person into staying with you, loving you,
calling you, caring for you, coming to see you, or staying attached to you.
Your destiny is never tied to anybody that left.

I'll tear down the stars and
I'll give them to you.
They're not as pretty as your eyes,
but I guess it will have to do.

i'm ready for a new start, a way to escape this madness.
the disaster we've created is one for the memories.
so many hurt, so many lost. 
was any of this worth it, was it worth losing a friend?

I put on an act sometimes, and people think I'm insensitive. Really, it's like a kind of armor because I'm too sensitive. If there are two hundred people in a room and one of them doesn't like me, I've got to get out.

Everybody has a desire, but I think it gets lost in translation and we start to desire things, for all the wrong reasons.

"I'm not allowed to fall in love," she said.
"I'm not allowed to care this much."
But when you're staying up late,
 hoping to god  he's tossing and turning,
thinking of you, it's too late already.

" After a while you learn the subtle difference between holding ahand and changing a soul. And you learn that love doesn't meanleaning and company doesn't mean security. And you begin to learn thatkisses aren't contracts and presents aren't promises. And you begin toaccept your defeats with your head up and your eyes ahead... and youlearn to build all your roads on today because tomorrow's ground is toouncertain for plans and futures have a way of falling down inmid-flight. So you plant your own garden instead of waiting for someone to bring you flowers.And you learn that you really can endure, that you really arestrong and that you really do have worth... and with every goodbye, youlearn. "

A couple of hundred years ago, Benjamin Franklin shared with theworld the secret of his success. Never leave that till tomorrow, hesaid, which you can do today. This is the man who discoveredelectricity. You think more people would listen to what he had to say.I don't know why we put things off, but if I had to guess, I'd have tosay it has a lot to do with fear. Fear of failure, fear of rejection,sometimes the fear is just of making a decision, because what if you'rewrong? What if you're making a mistake you can't undo? The early birdcatches the worm. A stitch in time saves nine. He who hesitates islost. We can't pretend we hadn't been told. We've all heard theproverbs, heard the philosophers, heard our grandparents warning usabout wasted time, heard the damn poets urging us to seize the day.Still sometimes we have to see for ourselves. We have to make our ownmistakes. We have to learn our own lessons. We have to sweep today'spossibility under tomorrow's rug until we can't anymore. Until wefinally understand for ourselves what Benjamin Franklin really meant.That knowing is better than wondering, that waking is better thansleeping, and even the biggest failure, even the worst, beat the hellout of never trying.
     -Grey's Anatomy

“To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligentpeople and the affection of children...to leave the world a betterplace...to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived.
This is to have succeeded.”

who doesn't need her.

"You put on a good show but I'd be willing to bet
that you're suffering more than you let anyone see."

I noticed how pretty the sky was the other day.
Then I realized its because your up there.

this worlds an ugly place but you're so beautiful to me.

" She was the third beer. Not the first one, which the throat receives with almost tearful gratitude;
 nor the second, that confirms and extends the pleasure of the first. But the third, the one you drink
 because it's there, because it can't hurt, & because
what difference does it make? "

are you here because you need someone,
or because you need me?

see when you're mad, you don't miss people.
so if you stay mad, it's like you never knew
them at all. that way you don't feel sucky
about them leaving you.

I thought how unpleasant it is to be locked out
and I thought how it is worse, perhaps, to be locked in.

I think I've realized that I grew up to fast
And listen home I'm thinking of my past.
The good times, and when the sun would make my day.

"I usually don't like thinking about the future. I mean, let'sface it, you can't predict what's going to happen. But sometimes, thething you didn't expect is what you really wanted after all. Maybe thebest thing to do is just stop trying to figure out where your going, and enjoy where your at."

"It's only after you've lost everything, that you're free to do anything."

"I'd like to stay a secret, like walking in the dark.
If no one knows you, no one cares, so no one breaks your heart."

And as they all grow older the truth will be understood,
’Cause we never turn out the way we thought we would.

“All God does is watch us and kill us when we get boring.
We must never, ever be boring.”

Theres a switch that gets hit, and it all stops making sense.
And in the middle of drinks, maybe the fifth or the sixth,
I'm completely alone at a table of friends.
And I feel nothing, I feel a terrible nothing.

What is it about love that makes us so stupid?
- Under the Tuscan Sun -

There is no person in the world who is made to handle every punch that`s thrown at them. We aren`t made that way. In fact, we`re made to get mad, upset, sad, be hurt, stumble & fall. We aren`t supposed to be able to handle everything. But that`s what makes us stronger in the end, by learning from the things that hurt us most.

A friend wonders about your romantic history but a best friend can blackmail you with it

truth is, everybody is going to hurt you.
you just gotta find the ones worth suffering for.
--bob marley

sometimes your heart knows things your mind
can't explain.

sometimes all you wish for
is for someone to wish for you.

it's just one of those days when
everything is completely wrong, and yet
you don't even know why you're so
depressed. and it's one of those days when you
wish that everyone would just leave you alone
and go away. yeah, it's one of those days when
all you need is to be left alone,
yet at the same time you wish
someone out there would care.

when men attempt bold gestures
generally it's considered romantic.
when women do it, it's often concidered
desperate or psychotic.

you make me happier
than i ever thought i could be.
and if you let me, i'll spend the rest of my life
trying to make you feel the same way.

Nothing is as important as a passion. No matter what you want to do with your life, be passionate.

Don't run from the truth because you can't get away. Just face it and you'll be okay. Turn up the music, turn it up loud. Take a few chances. Let it all out because you won't regret it looking back from where you have been. Because it's not who you knew and it's not what you did, it's how you live.

I guess a big part of growing up is dealing with regret. Swallowing your pride. There are some things in life you can`t go back & change, no matter how much you want to. I think that day I was finally forced to grow up, to leave the past behind, for one final time.

I don't care about your imperfections. That's what makes me adore you.

The girl is getting fed up with all the gossip. She slowly weeds out all her girl friends and replaces them with guys because guys don't gossip, guys don't spread rumors, guys just break hearts. And she can deal with that.

Just because someones pretty, doesn't mean she's decent or vice versa. I'm not into appearances. I like flaws, I think they make things interesting.
++ The Truth About Forever : Sarah Dessen

Somewhere out on an open road, you drove yourself out of your mind. Sometimes to do the things you love, you leave the ones you love behind.

I think she loves him. And love is needing someone. Love is putting up with someone’s bad qualities because they somehow complete you.

The more you show your feelings,
the more people can find ways to hurt you

i've learned that you can never expect
anything from anyone, no matter who it is.
the second you expect something from someone,
you're setting yourself up for heartbreak.

and i'm sitting here,
rehearsing all the things
i will never say to you.

The best moments in reading are when you come across something--a thought, a feeling, a way of looking at things-- that you'd thought special, particular to you. and here it is, set down by someone else, a person you've never met, maybe even someone long dead. and it's as if a hand has come out and taken yours.

i'm the best friend, but never the romance.
i'm the hook up, but never the commitment.
i'm a close second,
but never the perfect one.

I'm learning to let go; to forgive; to forget grudges. to trust; to hope; & to believe the impossible. take a change; attempt a risk ; speak your mind. never take life for granted ;; tomorrow may never come. make the most of what you have; & fight for your dreams. I'm learning now to live. to love. & to be loved.
