Everything has taken on a strange, distant quality - the sounds of running and shouting outside get warped and weird like they're being filtered through water, and Alex looks miles away. I start to think I might be dreaming, or about to pass

About This Quote

If you experience an intense relationship with someone who is so far away from you that he or she becomes “dreamy,” it can be a sign of love. In this case, Alex feels as if he’s dreaming about his girlfriend and that they might just be a figment of his imagination. At that moment, nothing seems real and their relationship is not working as it should.
