Loneliness may become something you accept and no longer try to defuse.

The more you have shared food, the more social you are. If there are small plates to share coming to the table, you can easily expect friendly environment.

He doesn’t love me enough, you muse, with sadness so crisp that it could turn tears into snowflakes.

Give yourself permission to reject calls and leave text messages unattended. The world won’t die. 

Ask the right questions. To your mentor, your coach, or on the Internet.

You’re never really happy. I’m certainly not. That’s a good thing. It means you’re always striving to do better. You hope the next piece will be better.

There’s something ultimately so comforting and refreshing about shared silences. 

We idealise romantic love in a way that can be damaging, it creates this fantasy that can’t really be lived up to.
