Not Here to Make Friends Quotes

“made a decision. Inside my mind, there was a vault. It was the place I put things when they got too big, too overwhelming, too much; a place where I could keep them until I was calm and steady enough to unpack them properly, to draw lines around them and file them—or bury them completely. I loved him so much. But I couldn’t have him. So I opened the vault. I took it all: all the feelings, all the emotions, all that volcanic attraction, all that bone-deep certainty that he was mine, mine, mine. And I locked it away.”
― Jodi McAlister, Not Here to Make Friends: A Novel
