To my seventeen-year-old self

Think about what your fucking seventeen-year-old is doing, pretending to have a smooth interpersonal relationship? Fear of gym class and morning exercises alone? Boys who secretly secretly communicate with ambiguous? I always need someone to be with me to prove that I am not out of place. To be honest, don’t I hate this kind of pretended harmony? Do I really need this kind of company to give me some comfort?

Hahaha yes I need it. It's so miserable to be left alone, feel like everyone is laughing at you and you can only console yourself, ah I'm special, they're all stupid so we can't be together, who cares? Like a boom in a movie It's like lying, ah, you pass through the crowd, no one greets you, it's embarrassing to death. Fortunately, I have real good friends. Although they are not together, they always bring me a lot of comfort in my heart. At least I have not been ignored by everyone.

I can't reconcile with my seventeen because I'm not sure if I've come out. If I could, I'd really like to tell that person fuck you, I have nothing to fear.

The Edge of Seventeen quotes

  • Nadine: Hey.

    Mr. Bruner: Busy.

    Nadine: I don't wanna take up a ton of your time, but I'm gonna kill myself. I just thought an adult should know.

  • Mr. Bruner: Wow. I actually was writing my own suicide note just now. I have 32 fleeting minutes of happiness during lunch, which has been eaten up again and again by the same especially badly dressed student, and I finally thought I would rather have the dark nothingness.
