“Please. Please, don’t say you love me,” he pleads.
“Why not? Isn’t that what you want?”
“No, because you saying it out loud makes it real. You know I can’t handle anything like that right now. I can’t give you a solid relationship right now.”
“I love you.”
“You shouldn’t.”

"I don’t know how to say this without sounding mad or jealous, even though I am. You’re my best friend. You told me to go after a guy and even spoke to him for me. Yet, it seems like you’re in love with him, like you’re more doing this for yourself to get closer to him than me. You brag about how he’s bring YOU lunch, not us. I don’t mind if you like him, but please, please do not lie to me about it. Don’t lie to yourself about it. If you want him, tell me. I’m not competing for him. I’ll easily let you win. That’s what best friends do."– I’ll fight for love, but I won’t compete for it.

“You’ll always have me,” he said, making sure I knew he meant it.
“You’ll always have me, too,” I look at him. “Just not in the same way…” I whispered.

If I’ve learned anything in the past year, it’s that the universe is always giving you what you need, and taking away what you don’t, even if, at the time, it seems like the exact opposite.
Something might seem so right in the moment but it’ll slip out of your hands the next and this will make you confused or heartbroken or even a little bit lost. You might find it impossible to understand how any of that pain could be turned into something beautiful, but I promise you that it can.
All of this bad stuff- the demons that you’ve been fighting, every single obstacle you’ve overcome, all of those tears that you’ve shed, every sleepless night that you’ve spent awake thinking about what went wrong- it’s all leading you towards something great, even if it might seem like otherwise at the time.
Sometimes we lose ourselves in something that isn’t meant for us, so the universe gives us a little nudge towards what we really need, even if it hurts our hearts.
But that thing that the universe is pulling you towards- that light at the end of the tunnel- it’ll be worth it. Every rough patch you’ve ever gone through, all of the heartbreak and anxiety and anything else in between, it won’t matter anymore. Your tears will dry, your heart will heal, and you will finally be happy.
So just hang in there, baby girl, and have faith in the fact that it’ll all be okay.

"If you ask most people, they would say, ‘Time flies by. In the blink of eye, you go from being 8 years old, playing Barbies in your basement to being 25 with nothing figured out.’ For me, that’s not true. For me, the days drag on. I feel like I have too much time. I’m not sure which is more disappointing: having no time to do all the things you want to do or having all the time in the world, but no motivation to do them."– excerpt from a book I’ll never write
