Everyone asks about how I'll feel about the tattoos and scars in thirty years. I always say: "I'll like them." I've always loved damaged monuments, in architecture and in humans.

Of course he freaked me out. Of course it's nothing to do with me. But none of that matters. He loved me and now he doesn't. I was everything to him and now I am nothing.

I enjoy films where two characters are coming of age, just different ages. That's why I love 'Paper Moon' so much.

When he kisses me, I cry. I explain it's not because I wish he were someone else, it's because it's such a shock to the system to be desired after feeling so completely abandoned.

I want you to stay. I never want there to be a time when we don't share space.

Yes, I have patterns of love addiction. But I'm a woman. Of course I do.
