“ You know when, sometimes you meet someone so beautiful, and then you actually talk to them and five minutes later, they’re as dull as a brick? Then there’s other people, and you meet them and you think, ‘Not bad; they’re okay.’ And then you get to know them, and their face sort of becomes them, like their personality is written all over it. And they just turn into something so beautiful. Rory’s the most beautiful man I’ve ever met.

I just wanted to scream at people and wreak havoc. It was a good thing I did it, you know. It’s not a sign of weakness when you do that, it’s because you want to change something or be able to be yourself.

“ We ask guys out, we get rejected. Or we don’t, and we go out on a date, and it’s a disaster. Or it’s not, and we end up having hot sex, but then he never calls us again. Or he does, and we go out for six wonderful months, and then he says his feelings have changed and he needs space, and he dumps us. Or he doesn’t, and we fall into a long-term relationship, and then forty years later, he dies and we’re alone again, and all we have to comfort us is that loving, faithful cat that you mocked in your original question.

“ When I write I am trying to express my way of being in the world. This is primarily a process of elimination: once you have removed all the dead language, the second-hand dogma, the truths that are not your own but other people’s, the mottos, the slogans, the out-and-out lies of your nation, the myths of your historical moment - once you have removed all that warps experience into a shape you do not recognise and do not believe in - what you are left with is something approximating the truth of your own conception.

How to Be Friends with an Introvert

manwathiel:

paper-girl:

1. If you must drag us to a party, please don’t abandon us.

Don’t go rushing off to catch up with your other friends without including the introvert; the inny will die in a corner.

2. If they actually call and wants to talk, listen!

These moments may not come often, since Innies usually work out their problems within their own brains, but that does not mean they are all Bella Swan “suffer in silence” types.

3. Realize that they do want to be alone sometimes.

They may have gone to that party, and even enjoyed it, but they burn out faster than you and need time to recharge alone. The assumption that all introverts are shy really bugs me. This is not always the case. They can be charming, tell jokes, and generally be the life of the party…but for a limited time only.

4. Skip the small talk.

Introverts are reflective beings and enjoy conversations about feelings and debating things like the ontological argument, and whatever interests they have. They can only tolerate chitchat with people they just met or haven’t seen for awhile. If you must tell them your entire jam-packed weekend in detail, check your inny friend for signs of consciousness periodically.

5. Introverts don’t hate people.

They just find them tiring.

6. Introverts are socially aware.

Yes, we are well-versed in social nuances, customs, and mannerisms; we just don’t implement them as frequently as extroverts do.

“ Somehow you got it in your head that this is your story. You’ve got to let that go. You’ve got to come up with a whole new story for yourself. You are who you are. And the sooner you are okay with that, the sooner that you see what I see, the happier you’re going to be. I swear to God.

“ It’s funny how it only takes 20 bucks and five minutes on the computer to get reordained to marry you and Connor, yet it’s completely illegal for me to marry a man myself.
