Oh, she could get lost for days in here, Irena thought as she took in the towering shelves of the library. If only she could.
Irena had taken to exploring the library at night to keep from going mad.
If a man wants to leave you, wave goodbye and lock the doors. You've got better things to do than chase a lost cause.
We shouldn’t assume that women and girls don’t know the difference between reality and fantasy. We don’t fear that men who read murder mysteries and thrillers are going to have a hard time not becoming serial killers, so why should we assume that a girl won’t know that she doesn’t have to change from a mermaid to human in order to find love just because of a movie?
Men are idiots. We complain that women are so mysterious and shit, and we never know what they want. We fuck up our relationships because we convince ourselves that it’s too hard to figure them out. But the real problem is with us. We think we’re not supposed to feel things and cry and express ourselves. We expect women to do all the emotional labor in a relationship and then act confused when they give up on us.
