“My time is already worthy, just by being mine, and I can use it to do the things I love: laughing with friends, reading good books, listening to Taylor Swift, finding ways to ease people’s burdens. And who knows what else I’ll discover about myself when I’m not worrying over a relationship or stressing about romantic prospects. Who knows what else I’ll become. Even if my worst fear comes to fruition, even if I’m alone in a hospital during my final moments, at least I’ll know that I actually lived. That I loved and cherished myself while I did.”
― Megan Collins, Cross My Heart

“It comes down to a simple truth: it’s easier, sometimes, to be miserable in love than it is to be alone.”
― Megan Collins, Cross My Heart

“But it’s extremely hard to sleep when another woman’s perfume is tickling your nostrils.”

“I know better than most the way dark thoughts intrude, the way a broken heart can break your brain a little, too.”
