“Moving on?! Why? Did you wake up this morning
and decide "I think I don't love Anthony?"
You know you're not moving on.”

“I'm his best friend. I've been there for him way before
any of you guys have.that's why he comes to me with all
of his problems. we went out to the gym together yesterday
so we could talk about you. that's all we've been talking about
since we've been back. other than that small family issue and
moving in with you guys. but everytime we talk, its been about
you. he loves you. and he doesn't know how to show it. you've been
in love with him forever. he took your virginity, there is no way
that you are ready to move on.”

“IF you guys ever dated, I'm sure he wouldn't be coming to me. He would talk to you. He didn't want to talk to you about his family issues because he doesn't like looking vulnerable in front of you. He likes you to see him as the strong guy that doesn't break down and cry. No guy likes to look like a pansy in front of the girl they have feelings for. Have you tried talking to Anthony about anything? No, I don't think so. You invite him into your room after your brother goes to sleep. That doesn't sound like you wanna talk. That sounds more like "Come bang me Ethan is sleeping." Anthony respects your brother waaaay too much to have sex with you while he's sleeping a few rooms over. Try inviting to go on a run with you in the morning. I'm sure he'd love to go. I think you're giving up too quickly. Where's the Claire that would push through and keep fighting until she got what she wanted?? Did you lose her on the cruise with your virginity?”

“You and I haven't talked about it because you didn't tell me until about a week after we got back. I had to pry it out of you. I bet you weren't even going to tell me. I figure, hey if she didn't want to tell me in the first place, why would she want to talk about it?Anthony and I aren't your only friends. You have Stefan. Call Stefan, he'd talk to you about it, he is one of your best friends after all. And I'm sorry that my life is too busy for you. You know damn well that if you showed up at my house or called me during the day I would DROP WHATEVER I was doing to spend time with you and talk to you. When have I ever not done that?!?! NEVER! You're the ONLY person I would do that for. Because you're my best friend. And good I'm glad he listens to you, because since my life is apparently "TOO BUSY" for you, you're gonna need someone to do that.”

“If I lost my virginity, you would be the first person I told and I would make sure it was right after or later on that day/night. That's not something I would keep from my best friend. You're right, I need to get up for my busy life. Night.”
