I had the feeling she was going to say something big. One of us had to say it. What happened to us? Where are we going? It was like this silence between us was frozen and we were both feeling our way around it. How is it that two people can need each other so absolutely and then, in moments, not even know how to be next to each other and just be quiet? Heather Duffy Stone
About This Quote

There is a kind of silence between us and it is hard to be next to one another without the comfort of words. I feel like we are each trying to figure out where we fit in each other's lives and how we can be together without the need for words. We are both afraid that if we say something wrong, or if we get things wrong, then we will lose each other and it will all be over. But I am also afraid that we will never say anything at all and we will just stop talking altogether and go back to how it was before and I will never know what you are thinking about me and how you feel about me.
