U were right when u said ppl can’t always give us what we want from them; that u can’t ask them to love u the way you want. No one can be blamed for that. And the odds had been stacked against us from the start: we had no manual, no one to show us the way. Not one example of a happy couple made up of boys. How we were supposed to know what to do? Did we even believe that we deserved it to get away with happiness

Who hasn’t ever felt the need to hide out of fear or worry about being their true self? Only those who have been through it can truly understand every word written in this chapter.

This first chapter came in swinging. It already gave me that ache in my chest, and I can tell I’m going to suffer with this one.
Loving someone in vain. Who hasn’t? Falling for someone who doesn’t feel the same. Who hasn’t? Investing your time in something that was only temporary. Who hasn’t? These things always hurt, and I feel so bad for Ludwik having to go through this :(
