The problem isn’t whether or not he loves you—it’s whether or not he loves you with conviction, with feeling. He loves you like the boy who you smiled at on a rainy day and the homely boy you winked at for a try or two (which was never true).
He loves you like he loves rain and weather—summer and winter. He loves you in the moment, my darling: he loves you when the stars are...

So, I'm happy.
Here you are—here’s what you’ve always wanted: permission to talk shit behind my back, to pretend that you’re sweet and kind when the world knows you’re vindictive and vengeful with such an ugly mind.
If you want to start a war, start it with conviction and heart: start it with the intention to finish, even if it’s your blood that’s fertilizing the soil...
When somebody tells you that they love you or have loved you, the feeling that sparks inside of you is not unlike pride or vanity. It’s astonishing and refreshing and frightening. It’s like all of the insecurities you’ve ever felt about yourself are gone for a second and slowly, you start to love yourself again.
You start to see yourself in another’s eyes and a little voice inside of you...
I feel completely and utterly frustrated at myself and everyone around me.
I’m frustrated that I can’t live up to what I was born from—that I can’t live up to what I should, and that I’m completely incapable of anything good.
I don’t like being coddled and lied to—indiscriminate flattery and unnecessary compliments. My whole being in itself is turning...

Assuming you want to get married/have children
larmonely:
Out of the nearly 7 billion people who exist in the world…
Somewhere out there, your spouse is alive, breathing, and living his/her life. You may know them already, or you may not.
Somewhere out there, the people that will be the parents of your son or daughter in law exist. Their children will fall in love and marry your children.
Isn’t that amazing?

When you break up with a girl—you don’t just break up with her: you give up all thoughts or beliefs or delusions of the rights you had to her.
You give up the charade of entitlement you thought you had to her—the dreams and future you created together with her.
You remove the sheet holding up the house of cards and if, for one second, you believe that you can just come back and...

You are a wonderful human being. You literally made my shitty-ass day a million times better. I just wanted to let you know:) & You’re a beautiful person. People like me, need more people like you in my life. Seriously, you have no idea how just those simple words bring a little glimmer of hope in my horrible horrible grey day. So I thought you deserve a post. Actually you deserve...
Jenny Vu as a girlfriend.
I get this a lot: “God, I feel sorry for any guy that gets stuck with you” or “God, the guy who becomes your boyfriend is lucky as hell.”
Both sorta kinda suck, because both sorta kinda aren’t true.
If I could describe the type of girlfriend I am, it’s probably spontaneous and incredibly annoying to the point where you can’t stand me. Sometimes I...
Jenny Vu and her perfect guy.
Obviously—somebody who doesn’t exist, for the very purpose of staying single until whenever the fuck I want to. But, surely, everyone has standards, mine are just impossible. It’s a self-defense mechanism, you see?
I want somebody I can fuck in the morning and play games at night with—somebody who will feed me in the afternoon and provide intellectually stimulating...
I am... so lucky.
And, so are you.
So good night: we’re all children of stars, living under the comfort of the moon and space—protecting us from ourselves.

Everybody constantly makes posts about how they hate humanity, how it’s ugly and corrupted. Everybody constantly sees the monstrosity and forgets the beauty.
But me? I love humanity. All of it. The corruption, the pain, the anger and the betrayal. It’s beautiful in a sick kind of way. Even despite everything: the wars, the blood, the slaughter and the backstabbing and corruption,...
The question isn't whether or not you'll be around...

Everybody upsets me.
Maybe mother does know best and my friends aren’t really my friends at all.
Maybe my mom was right all along.
Maybe good people don’t exist.
But maybe, maybe she was wrong.
