Me: I used escapist fantasies as a coping mechanism to get through years of trauma and therefore never learned how to plan for a real life future

Alternatively: I went through periods of depression so frequent and intense that I never considered that I’d actually make it to my 20s so now I’m kinda just making it up as I go

“I love her for all the best reasons that a man loves a woman. In the end, I love her because she makes more of my world and my life than I can make of them by myself.”

“You’re important to me. I think if there’s anything that will last forever, it’s that. Whether we separate, stay in touch or rarely speak again, you will always be that little someone I really do care for, that I would sacrifice everything for to protect and keep safe.”

Beau Taplin, The Promise

“You don’t need to force yourself to like me… l don’t even like myself much.”

Haruki Murakami, Colorless Tsukuru Tazari and His Years of Pilgrimage

“I still look back on those evenings we spent together as the happiest part of my life, and I wanted it to go on forever.”

Henry MacAlpine

“I was always hungry for love. Just once, I wanted to know what it was like to get my fill of it — to be fed so much love I couldn’t take any more. Just once.”

Haruki Murakami

The fact that we can instantly recognize a song we haven’t heard in years, but struggle to remember what we had for lunch yesterday, shows how deeply music is ingrained in our minds and emotions

“I hope you find someone you can’t live without. l really do. And I hope you never have to know what it’s like to have to try and live without them.”

Kiera Cass, The Selection
