“I should be comforting Illa for her first heartbreak, I should've been stronger, set a better example, I should have confronted Eliza from the start, told James the truth about my feelings. But one thing I shouldn't have done was let fear and my self-guilt control everything I did. I was always scared of people leaving so I held on too tightly, allowing myself to suffer through pains that I never deserved instead of standing up for my own feelings. I wanted so badly for my relationships to work out that I let people hurt me. Over and over again. Love at the expense of losing myself. Losing my own voice.”
― Loridee De Villa, How to Be the Best Third Wheel

“I don't know what's going to come out of me. It has to be perfect. It has to be irreproachable in every way.'
