But just because you bury something, that doesn't mean it stops existing. Those feelings, they'd been there all along. All that time. I had to face it.

More quotes by Jenny Han
Best friends are important. They're the closest thing to a sister you'll ever have.
Jenny Han
It's scary how easy promises were broken.
Jenny Han
I think I see the difference now, between loving someone from afar and loving someone up close. When you see them up close, you see the real them, but they also get to see the real you.
Jenny Han
There's no use in asking what if. No one could ever give you the answers.
Jenny Han
Happiness is a Slurpee and a hot pink straw.
Jenny Han
When a person you love dies, it doesn’t feel real. It’s like it’s happening to someone else. It’s someone else’s life. I’ve never been good with the abstract. What does it mean when someone is really truly gone?
Jenny Han
Aching familiar in a way that made me wish I was still eight. Eight was before death or divorce or heartbreak. Eight was just eight. Hot dogs and peanut butter, mosquito bites and splinters, bikes and boogie boards. Tangled hair, sunburned shoulders, Judy Blume, in bed by nine thirty.
Jenny Han
In the dark you can feel really close to a person. You can say whatever you want.
Jenny Han
When you walk on the beach at night, you can say things you can't say in real life.
Jenny Han
There hadn’t been one specific moment. It was like gradualy waking up. You go from being asleep to the space between dreaming and awake and then into consciousness. It’s a slow process, but when you’re awake, there’s no mistaking it. There was no mistaking that it had been love.
Jenny Han
For me there was-is-nothing better than walking on the beach late at night. It feels like you could walk forever, like the whole night is yours and so is the ocean. When you walk on the beach at night, you can say things you can't say in real life. In the dark you can feel really close to a person. You can say whatever you want.
Jenny Han
You never know the last time you’ll see a place. A person.
Jenny Han
Sometimes questions can be more cruel than insults.
Jenny Han
How was I supposed to know what's real and what's not? It feels like I'm the only one who doesn't know the difference.
Jenny Han
And no matter what you do or how hard you try, you can’t stop yourself from dreaming.
Jenny Han
When boy likes you, you say no thank you. You don't kick him on the ground.
Jenny Han
I release you. I evict you from my heart. Because if I don't do it now, I never will.
Jenny Han
Here's something else, something important: Love is not transactional. It is not a bank account, you don't always get what you put in. Sometimes you put in so much and get very little return on your investment, at least that you can see right away.
Jenny Han
I knew it in my bones. That this time was it. I had finally made my choice, and so had he. He let me go. I was relieved, which I expected. What I didn't expect was to feel so much grief.
Jenny Han
Love is scary: it changes it can go away. That's the part of the risk. I don't want to be scared anymore.
