But the issues discussed are very real, adolescence insecurity, possessiveness, comparison, self-doubt, inferiority complex, rebelliousness, beautiful love in fantasy, conflicts with family members, ineffective communication...

The heroine is really mourning, and she really won't find the reason from herself, but as a child, how do you know to blame yourself

The Edge of Seventeen quotes

  • Nadine: [writing a text to a boy she has a crush on] Nick, I'm just gonna say it, I like you. I've liked you for months. I think about you every second. I don't know, maybe I even love you. You're so complicated, but simple, and I just feel this connection between us, I feel like I already know you, and I just want to be with you. I want to give you head, I want you to put your mouth on my tits, I want to feel you inside me... We can do it in the Petland stockroom. - Nadine.

    [pause]

    Nadine: Oh my god. Oh my god.

    Nadine: [to herself] You sound like a fucking psychopath. You can't send this.

    [She accidentally sends the text]

    Nadine: What? No. Shit... Oh my god. Oh my god, no way, no, no, no way, no. FUCK! Oh my god! Shit!

  • Darian: You're right about everything. I'm only here for me, and my life is fucking incredible. I love it. I love spending another night talking Mom off the ledge, I love only applying to schools nearby, because who knows what'll happen in the house if I'm not around to fix it, and I love...

    [getting choked up]

    Darian: that the one person who makes me feel like I could take a fucking breath... I can't have without completely destroying you. So, you're right. You're right, it's a blast. I win.
