Being told that love is forbidden does not kill love. It strengthens it.

do you ever feel yourself getting so attached to someone like holy shit all u want to do is talk to them forever and be with them and never have them leave your side but you play it cool because you don’t want them to know how clingy and annoying you actually are

Work hard for what you want because it won’t come to you without a fight. You have to be strong and courageous and know that you can do anything you put your mind to. If somebody puts you down or criticizes you, just keep on believing in yourself and turn it into something positive.

It’s strange, isn’t it, how the idea of belonging to someone can sound so great? It can be comforting, the way it makes things decided. We like the thought of being held, until it’s too tight. We like that certainty, until it means there’s no way out. And we like being his, until we realize we’re not ours anymore.
