adam silvera must be the most talented writer of the century to be able to trick almost all of his readers into thinking rufus and mateo would survive even though the title of the book is literally ‘they both die at the end’. still can’t believe i fell for that trickery
i am, unfortunately, a victim of this. i was a whole ass achiever with extracurriculars meanwhile he barely passed his classes, and he had no emotional intelligence on top of that. i keep making dating mistakes.
i saw the best minds of my generation destroyed by a mediocre bf
AMEN to hot korean priests in particular

Because women don’t have to be men’s equals to be considered contenders; they have to be better. That’s the lie of it all. You have to be better to prove yourself worthy of being equal.

“I hope love finds you.” she said. “I hope it looks for you at 3am when you’ve had enough. I hope it whispers at you every time sadness creeps up in your ears. I hope it hugs you, every time fear tries to surround your whole being. I hope it kisses your tears away, not only those from your eyes, but also those cries from your heart.” she looked at him and smiled, then finally uttered, “I hope love won’t give up on you, even if you fall back on your knees, with bleeding hands refusing to hold onto.”
I hope you accept it, when it finally meets you. //ma.c.a
