Love is needing someone. Love is putting up with someone's bad qualities because they somehow complete you.
Sarah DessenWe can't expect everybody to be there for us, all at once. So it's a lucky thing that really, all you need is someone.
Sarah DessenBecause you can never go from going out to being friends, just like that. It's a lie. It's just something that people say they'll do to take the permanence out of a breakup. And someone always takes it to mean more than it does, and then is hurt even more when, inevitably, said โfriendly' relationship is still a major step down from the previous relationship, and it's like breaking up all over again. But messier.
