“You’re just…” He buried his face in my neck, pressing his lips there. “Thank you. I’m sorry I was such an asshole at the beginning.” I chuckled and threaded my fingers through his hair, damp from a recent shower. “Sorry I was so annoying.” “You weren’t.” His voice was muffled against my neck. “I just hate everyone.” He was silent for a moment, before he croaked, “I don’t hate you.”

“We're very dismissive, as a culture, about heartbreak. We talk about it like it's funny, or silly, or cute. As if it can be cured by a pint of Haagen-Dazs and a set of flannel pajamas.

But of course, a breakup is a type of grief, it's the death of not just any relationship - but the most important one in your life,

There's nothing cute about it.

"Dumped" is also a word that falls short of its true meaning. It sounds so quick - like a moment in time. But getting dumped lasts forever. Because a person who loved you decided not to love you anymore.

Does that ever really go away?”

“It’s the oldest story in the world.
One day you’re 17 and planning for someday.
And then, quietly, and without you ever really noticing, someday is today.
And then someday is yesterday.
And this is your life.”
