I am here for Friends

About Me

"It's just that I don't want to be somebody's crush. If somebody likes me, I want them to like the real me, not what they think I am. And I don't want them to carry it around inside. I want them to show me, so I can feel it, too. I want them to be able to do whatever they want around me. And if they do something I don't like, I'll tell them." ~perks of being a wallflower~
************************************************************ ***********
"Borderline Personality Disorder. An instability of self-image, relationships and mood... uncertain about goals, impulsive in activities that are self-damaging, such as casual sex. Social contrariness and a generally pessimistic attitude are often observed." ~girl, interrupted~
************************************************************ ************
"That's life. If nothing else, its life. It's real, and sometimes it fuckin hurts, but it's sort of all we have." ~garden state~
************************************************************ ************
"i think your heart grows back bigger ya know, once you get the shit beat out of you. And the universe lets your heart expand that way, cause thats the function of all this pain and heartache that you go through and you gotta go through that to come out to a better place" ~must love dogs~
************************************************************ ***********
"i gotta say that
when my heart attacks
don't return it
it'll fire right back." ~cassino~

"If you was hit by a truck and you were lying out there in that gutter dying, and you had time to sing one song. Huh? One song that people would remember before you're dirt. One song that would let God know how you felt about your time here on Earth. One song that would sum you up. You're telling me that's the song you sing. That same Jimmy Davis tune we hear on the radio, all day. About your peace within, and how it's real, and how you're gonna shout it? Or... would you sing something different. Something real. Something you felt. Cause I'm telling you right now, that's the kind of song people want to hear. That's the kind of song that truly saves people. It ain't got nothin to do with believin' in God, Mr. Cash. It has to do with believin' in yourself." ~walk the line~
************************************************************ ***********
"dude, you're space reaks of bitter broken hearted girl. what up with that, yo?" ~robyn~
************************************************************ ***********
"Michael Green: My wife is an alcoholic. Best person I ever met. She has 600 different smiles. They can light up your life. They can make you laugh out loud, just like that. They can even make you cry, just like that. That's just with her smiles. You'd have to see her with her kids. You'd have to see how they look at her, when she's not looking. To think of all the things she lives through, and I couldn't help her.
Alice Green: Maybe helping wasn't your job.
Michael Green: Well, it wasn't. See I love her. And I tried everything, except really listening, really listening, and that's how I left her alone. I was so ashamed of that, and I couldn't even tell her. Maybe if I tell her she'd love me anyway.
Alice Green: Or more. She would have loved you even more. I think you should tell all this stuff to your wife. ."~when a man loves a woman~
************************************************************ ***********
"I started a list called "man I hope she likes dudes."~sean~
************************************************************ ***********
"when you love you should not say, "god is in my heart," but rather, "i am in the heart of god." and think not you can direct the course of love, for love, if it finds you worthy, directs your course."~kahlil gibran~
************************************************************ ***********
"What you feel only matters to you. It's what you do to the people you love. That's what matters. That's the only thing that counts."~the last kiss~
************************************************************ ***********
"Poets often describe love as an emotion that we can't control, one that overwhelms logic and common sense."~the notebook~
************************************************************ ***********
"You loved the previews and hate the movie. You scream at the screen, "Something move me!" before you start to fade away."~butch walker~
************************************************************ ***********
"Anything less than mad, passionate, extraordinary love is a waste of your time."~dream for an insomniac~
************************************************************ ***********
"Behind the bleek "I'm gonna spend the rest of my life alone" part. You have a great sense of humor and know few people who are as warm and kind hearted.You are the type of friend who you don't see for 5 years and continue talking as if no time has past.Even though you attract douche bags I wish you give yourself more credit,any man would be lucky to have you as a friend or mate.I just wouldn't let you bathe my kids."
