"There is no shame in being hungry for another person. There is no shame in wanting very much to share your life with somebody."

Augusten Burroughs (via rainydaysandblankets)

"You don’t ever have to feel guilty about removing toxic people from your life. It doesn’t matter whether someone is a relative, romantic interest, employer, childhood friend, or a new acquaintance — you don’t have to make room for people who cause you pain or make you feel small. It’s one thing if a person owns up to their behavior and makes an effort to change. But if a person disregards your feelings, ignores your boundaries, and continues to treat you in a harmful way, they need to go."

Daniell Koepke  (via 5ft1)
