But if I didn’t want to be alone, then why didn’t I want to be with anyone else?
David Levithan
I am learning that a life isn't real unless someone else knows its reality. And I want my life to be real.
David Levithan
Teens wanted things that were real, that they connected with, it doesn't have to reflect reality directly. They love 'The Hunger Games' not because it's real in that it happens, but the emotions there are real, and it's very relatable.
David Levithan
I can flirt with the best of them, but only when it doesn't matter.
David Levithan
