Quotes by Amanda Meuwissen (?)

“He didn't believe in love, not even in saying the words, because that was more damaging and hollower than being hated if it came from somewhere fake or turned into rubbish along the way.”
― Amanda Meuwissen, Coming Up for Air

“Differences do not make us ugly, even if we have a hard time telling ourselves that.”

“I deserve his kindness, and his support. I deserve his interest in the things I love. I deserve his honesty when he tells me what he loves. I deserve his humor when we disagree without him ever turning cruel. I deserve his voice that feels like home, and his hold that feels like Heaven. I deserve how he sees me for me and would never try to change me. But most of all, I deserve a partner, you fucking douchebag, and that was never going to be you.”
― Amanda Meuwissen, His Slender Embrace
