And I'm just a speck on the wall

Why do I and everyone I love, pick people who treat us like we're nothing?
We accept the love we think we deserve.
Then why didn't you ever ask me out?
I,uh... I just didn't think you wanted that.
Well, what did you want?
I just wanted you to be happy.
Don't you get it, Charlie? I can't feel that. It's really sweet and everything, but... You can just sit there and put everybody's lives ahead of yours and think that counts as love. I don't want to be somebody's crush. I want people to like the real me.
I know who you are, Sam. I... I know I'm quiet and I know I should speak more. But if you knew the things that... that were in my heart most of the time you'd know what it really meant. How much we're alike. And how we've been through the same things. And you're not small. You are beautiful.

This paragraph made me cry.

It's always like this, having a crush on someone. I think he's so beautiful, and I don't deserve it. Obviously I have never owned it for a second, but it is like a lovelorn 10,000 times.

He wasn't waiting for me like Sam was waiting for Charlie to come and ask her out.

And these are just wishful thinking.

I don't have friends, and I've controlled myself not to fantasize, so I've become even more lifeless.

I can answer Dickens and Box office too, but what's the point? I'm also the one who knows the answer but is too afraid to raise my hand. Also, I don't know what I'm afraid of.

So, this is a healing movie, but I am still in a world of inferiority complex and autism, which has not changed.

    The director wrote and directed his own novels, too strong personal imprint, depriving me of the right to think. In order to attract fans to see that Emma Watson can handle more mature themes, the compromise was reduced to PG13. To say a cruel thing: Bai Fumei, who has no worries about food and clothing, actually never knows the taste of the real wallflower, but she is still sad at 45 degrees. In fact, whether you are a school flower or a wall flower, there is a sad story. This is youth.

    I usually like to be poked by a lot of points and feel like I cried a pack of tissues for the whole story... When I read it, I was still wondering if American high school students really have so much time to play. I can have a date with more than three people in 2015. Only Twice...;-;/ I didn't expect this movie to make me read for more than a week and always think of the plot. Hot reviews say that youth is not so complicated but it's actually much more difficult than the movie

    Patrick: How's your first relationship going?

    Charlie: It's so bad, that I keep fantasizing that one of us is dying of cancer, so that I don't have to break up with her.

  • Mother: She's on the phone now? Charlie, you've got to break up with her.

    Charlie: I can do that?
