“How can loving someone as much as I love him be so delicate?”
― Hannah Moskowitz, Sick Kids in Love

“Were you blackout drunk when you said I shouldn't date him because I shouldn't settle for someone sick just because I think I can't do better?"
"I just don't want you to feel like you're not worthy of anyone you want, whether or not they're sick, just because you have, like, a condition."
"Being sick is not a bad thing," I say. "And you guys don't get that. You will never get that.”

“I never know how you actually feel about anything because you're too busy overthinking everything to death," he says. "How do you feel? What do you actually want?”

“One thing no one ever told me about relationships - and it's honestly a good thing they didn't, because it sounds so stupid and overdramatic that I never would have believed it - is that desperate, deep sense of loss you get every time a kiss stops or he lets go of your hand. He'll still be right there, but the fact that I was just touching him and now I'm not makes me feel this gnawing at the bottom of my throat, every time. He pulls back from me, and it's like I'm watching it in slow motion, trying to will it not to happen, and I feel a bit of me pull away with him, like it's attached.
But then he touches me again, and I think, home.
I am allowing myself to think, home.
I'm doing this.”
