So happy I was sent this as a gift

“I got scared I was doing what I always do, give all of myself, and take care of everyone around me, even if I don’t get it back.”

“You didn’t waste it, Mei. Think about everything you’ve learned about yourself over the last year. What you want in a partner, and maybe some things you don’t. And how big of a love you’re capable of giving to someone else.”

“Nate was also gone so often—more than half the time—that I’m used to being without him. That I don’t miss him, if I’m being honest with myself. I just miss knowing that I had someone out there, planning to come home to me.”

Ooooofffff iykyk 😂😬

“I’d done what Goldie always feared I’d do, what we grew up watching our mother do and be destroyed by: I let a man take care of me.”

“I let myself believe — naively, foolishly — that this life was mine for the keeping.”

“it's been at least a year, longer, probably since Nate and me have been Nate and me. We settled so invisibly into our shared but separate lives … Nate had become my long-term plan by default, not choice, and that there was a part of me, not insignificant, that stayed with him only to prove something to myself. That I'm capable of an everlasting relationship. That I'm settled and grown-up and taken care of”

I know I know I talk shit but it was at the airport so I bought it

Just gonna leave these two quotes here…

“Ruby has ice cream nearly every day in the warm months.”

“Her mother seldom objects to treats and always leaves cash for random indulgences.”
