Kindle Notes & Highlights
I didn’t need to be the prettiest or the most successful or even the most talented. But I desperately wanted—needed—to be loved.
When I was young I’d always known that the antidote to my loneliness would be to fall in love someday. I looked forward to love more than anything else about growing up. More than leaving home or learning to drive or doing drugs—things that other kids were excited about. I didn’t care about those things. The only thing I wanted was to be known completely by someone, to know someone completely.
