“I said a lot of crappy things the other night and I'm sorry about that. The truth is, I'm scared to be your friend, because I'm always going to want more. But then I got to thinking that I would rather have you in my life as a friend than not at all.”

“Because you can never go from going out to being friends, just like that. It's a lie. It's just something that people say they'll do to take the permanence out of a breakup. And someone always takes it to mean more than it does, and then is hurt even more when, inevitably, said ‘friendly' relationship is still a major step down from the previous relationship, and it's like breaking up all over again. But messier.”

“I couldn’t just be your friend. And at first I thought that was my flaw. But it was a flaw in you, for asking that of me.

I’ll probably always love you. And when and if our paths cross again I know, I’ll be breaking on the inside. I'll break for all we were, all we weren’t, and all you’ve probably forgotten, that I can’t seem to.”

“You wanna know what the truth is? I still love you and I probably will love you for a very long time. But I can't just be your buddy, because as much as i enjoy the concept of being "just friends" in reality it's a bizarre form of torture and i'm just not willing to participate in it. so right now what i wanna do is just move on and get over you and the only way for me to do that is to not be around you anymore.”

“I told you I loved you. I knew I couldn’t just be your friend. Because I would always want more.

And every time alcohol came pressed between my lips, I’d reach for the phone to tell you these things. I wanted to be strong for you. I wanted to be there for you. I wanted to go back to the ways things used to be, before I fell fast and hard. But we don’t choose who we love. Our heart makes these choices for us.”

“Beware of the word friend. It can often be used by men and women, that love them to excuse the most unfriendly behavior. Personally when I’m picking friends, I like the ones who don’t make me cry myself to sleep.”

“Whispers scream in the night, ‘just friends’ or ‘fuck buddies.’ You're doomed. Because someone is going to get hurt. Someone is gonna fall.”

“There's a fine line between 'friends' and someone not caring enough to call you their girlfriend. You don't deserve someone who keeps you around solely to boost their own ego, when they have no one better to call. I know you think letting him go feels like you're losing the love of your life. But letting someone like this go, will really bring you one step closer to someone who actually is. Because real love isn't a grey area. Real love is respect and loyalty and treating you the way you deserve. Don't think this is love. Love is so much more. And I hope one day it finds you. ”

“We’re just friends tangled up in loose ends
I feel it coming around again
Let me know where you let your heart go
And I will just pretend
That I have never felt this way
Since you I have never felt this way
Since you
I feel strange
Playing games.”
— Ed Sheeran, I"m Glad I'm Not You

“You don't need to change
A thing about you, babe
I'm telling you from where I sit
You're one of a kind

Relationships I don't know why
They never work out and they make you cry
But the guy that says goodbye to you
Is out of his mind, mind

You always did kinda drive me crazy
And it pissed me off 'cause I let it phase me
But I never wanted my time with you to end

Now I'm back in town for a day or two
Well, mostly I came back just to see you
I am leaving now but I don't want to go”

“Every time he goes, she dies
Every time she comes, she cries. 

He was her long, bright future
In the middle of a wrong, dark road
He loved her, but he wasn't too sure
If he could return the love she showed
When she said, "my love extends
Beyond the realm of being friends"
He kissed her head
And quietly he said

"It's not that you're not beautiful, you're just not beautiful to me”

“Michael, I love you. I've loved you for nine years. I've just been too arrogant and scared to realize it, and, well, now, I'm just scared, so - I-I-I realize this comes at a very inopportune time, but I really have this gigantic favor to ask of you. Choose me. M-marry me. Let me make you happy. Oh, that sounds like three favors, doesn't it?”

“It's just a drop in the ocean, a change in the weather, I was praying that you and me might end up together. It's like wishing for rain, as I stand in the desert. But I'm holding you closer than most, 'cause you are my heaven.

Misplaced trust in old friends, never counting regrets, by the grace of God, I do not rest at all.”
— Ron Pope, A Drop In The Ocean

“I have enough friends
I don’t want your friendship
I want your hand to hold at night
I want your voice to hear every morning
I want your hugs to keep me warm
I don’t want your friendship
I want more
I want your love”
