“

When you leave everything you know behind, you will get lonely. The kind of loneliness that is palpable.

“

I don’t ever mean to pull away. It’s never malicious. It isn’t because I hate someone, or that I’ve decided my life is better without them. It’s because my f*cking brain says, “You’re done for a while. Go hibernate, ya weirdo.”

“

Honestly when I start pulling away it’s because I am talking to someone else.

“

You meet a guy and everything seems like it’s going great. Then after what feels like a super intense connection, and you feel like a relationship might be on the horizon, suddenly he cools WAY off.

“

When he feels good around you, he’ll want to be around you. When he feels like you’re trying to get something out of him, he will want nothing to do with you.
