None of the Above

Love isn’t a choice. You fall for the person, not their chromosomes.

The biggest difference between boy and girls is how people treat them

If there’s one thing I learned from my dad leaving my mom, it’s that love isn’t a choice. You fall for the person, not their chromosomes.

That was When I realized that life was a multiple-choice test with two answerd: Male and Female, And I was None Of The Above.

The common thread from all those stories was that talking helped, and listening, and time. One day I would find my own place. I couldn't run there, though, because it didn't exist yet; I had to build it myself, out of forgiveness, truth, and terrifying gestures of friendship.

You know I love you too, sweetie. Forever and ever, until the sun fades.

My cheeks flushed, and I felt a wave of warmth throughout my body, but not because of the subject matter. Because she had used the word us. It was one of those times when you don’t realize how lonely you are until, suddenly, there’s someone by your side.

I could still feel the echo of his hand on mine.

And I wondered for the first time whether 'feeling feminine' just meant feeling good in your own skin.

But what does that mean, to "identify" as a gril? Just because you feel like you´re a girl doesn´t mean that you really are

low expectations were the key to a happy life.

If tonight wasn’t going to be the night—one week after my eighteenth birthday, with a limo to ourselves and no curfew—when was?

As long as we had ground under our feet and the wind at our backs, things were going to be okay.
