Ramani Durvasula
“Many times in new relationships the restructuring of boundaries can be hard work and requires mature and insightful communication. A common mistake is to assume that boundaries will just figure themselves out; they often do not, and hurt feelings are inevitable. For example, snuggle time with a male friend may evaporate once the woman enters into a committed relationship. Boundaries are usually implicit and understood by the persons in the relationship.”
Ramani Durvasula, Should I Stay or Should I Go?: Surviving a Relationship with a Narcissist

“No te hundas por una opinión, tú mejor que nadie sabes que hay veces en que tienes que coger impulso y levantarte con fuerza.”

Elif Shafak
“That was the problem with all these butterfly-life-spanned girlfriends the scenarist brought with him. Driven by an impulse to become friends with everyone in the group, they asked too many personal questions and made too many personal comments, miserably failing to acknowledge that it was precisely the opposite, the lack of any serious and sincere interest in each other's privacy, which drew the group members to one another.”
Elif Shafak, The Bastard of Istanbul

“Sometimes friendship can be true but lacking.”
Theogene TUYISHIMIRE

Ingrid Valenzuela, Alon and Lila's Last Summer Before Doomsday

“And I know that because you made it out, ans it´s one of the worst things I´ve ever felt, but I wish it had been Sirius. I´m sorry, because you´re my friend, and I´m-I am so fucking greatful that you´re here and you´re okay, but something in me wishes it was him.

"Right, so that´s-that´s out of the way. We´re awful and we´re sorry. Good enough for me. Good enough for you?”
Zeppazariel, Crimson Rivers

“Kirsty turned to Rachel.
”What should we choose?” she asked. ”What fits with rainbow colours?”
“Easy,” said Rachel. “Our theme should be friendship. That fits with rainbows – the fairies taught us that!”
The girls held hands and smiled at each other.
“That’s perfect,” Kirsty replied. “We’re very lucky. I’m so glad we met each other that day on the boat to Rainspell Island.”
“Me too,” said Rachel.”
Daisy Meadows, Brooke the Photographer Fairy
