Highlights

I think it's possible that I could have been capable of like loving someone, but I believe that I was really afraid of what it does to me, you know?
It's like I jump in very hard, and at first I think that's okay, but I think you have to learn to, like, live with someone reasonably, you know what I mean? and, like, be your own person and shit.
But I've realized that I have a tendency to get overly obsessive, involved, put all of my energy into the person — and I think somewhere in the back of my mind I was aware of that and didn't want to flip that switch, you know?
So it had to be done it in smaller doses, so to speak. (via)

Clarity is kindness (via)

we're capable of big, beautiful life-affirming love (via)

you're not into it until you are (via)

A thing me my girlfriend talk about is it has to be self-interest — it has to be I want to see you again. I'm not doing it as a favor to you. I'm not doing it because we slept together and I owe you. I'm doing it because it's better to be with you than by myself (or it's awfully close). (via)

People pleasing is something that I've looked at recently in this relationship which is, like, this need that I have to make sure that everything's okay — and in doing so, I'm not really being, like, honest or like doing things that I really want to do in the interest of like just making sure that everything's fine and taking care of. (via)

I want the you — the person you are without me — with me. Like, just do your thing. It's more attractive to me when you fuck off and do your thing. That's what I like. (via)

I really can just take a deep breath and, like, live my life and also be in love with somebody and, like, that's the healthy version. (via)
