What We Used To Know - Comments

  • You know what it's like when you're about to cry?
    When your throat closes up, your body tenses, and your tear ducts tingle?
    That is exactly what is happening to me right now.
    You're just an amazing writer. You have to realize that.
    I've loved every minute I spent reading this story and I can honestly say that it is the best I've read since I started reading online.
    You evoke emotion like no other author on here.
    I truly cannot wait for the sequel.

  • : [ that's the saddest thing I've ever read. but so well written, it was beautiful. at the beginning I had no idea that things were going to end up this way so I'm really curious about what's going to happen to the sequel. I mean, I don't want Oliver to move on but I guess that's how it has to be right? I'm sure what ever you do, it's going to be absolutely wonderful.

  • oh that was just so sad! i can feel the lump in my throat just reading that last chapter. the way you described it all was in sucj detail. and the ending is just so sad. oliver saying all those things and addie saying that. i cant wait for the sequel, to find out what happens, im thinking its going to be in olivers point of view, yes? this story was so amazing and i didnt think you'd be able to do a sequel to it, but i guess there is going to be one. its so sad that addie had to leave him, the way you wrote it, it seemed so real and i was almost crying! you're writing is incredible, as well as your self. you should be damn proud of this story, its unbelievably amazing.

  • That was so sad. You did such an amazing job describing Oliver in the kitchen being all sick and what not, that just made it so much worse. I almost cried, I swear. That was probably the single most sad thing I've ever read in my entire life.

    And I knew that Addie was going to tell him to leave. I just knew it. But the way you wrote it made it seem like I had no idea it was going to happen, and that just made it even more heart wrenching.

    You're incredible.

  • I cried like a baby.

  • -...awwww during the whole chapter I fet sssoo sorry for Oliver...seriously...*sheds a tear*

    I wonder if she's dead now?

  • holy fuck, that was amazing. it was so long and so heartwrenching. my throat still feels thick.

    I loved how you kept us updated on both of them at the same time and I loved Oliver's apology and his proclaimation. I'm glad she saw her mom even though her mom won't know she was there. It was at least some piece of mind for addie. I love how you portrayed how scared Oli was. And how you included how long the elevator took.

    AHH, I'M SO SAD!

  • For the entirety of the story, I was able to cry at every sad moment. But for some reason I can't seem to now, when I want to most.

    I'm so, so relieved they set things right. As a reader, I feel like a huge weight's been lifted. Granted, it's a grim ending, but at the same time there's this little speck of content (I can't quite find the right word), that it was okay for her to die in that moment.

    Thank you so much for this story =)

  • She died?

    It's a horrible ending (not the writing, but what has happened)
    It's so unfair! I was just wondering did Addie ever know of Oli's drinking
    Problem? Did oli tell her?

  • the ending was so sad. I actually cried. it was such a good story though, I can't wait for the sequel :)

  • I don't know why you were so worried about the readers reactions to the ending, I think it was beautiful in every way possible. And I'm happy to announce that, although still partial to Oli, I have forgiven Addie for all her wrong doings. I can't really be mad at a dead chick anyway :)

    "Addie, I… I want to spend the rest of my life with you. I can’t imagine it any other way."
    I can't even deny that this made me a little emotional. I guess I just imagine things in my head too vividly and this was just too much to deal with. I got attached to the version of Oliver that you've written and I have a problem knowing that he's going through any sort of pain, and even worse was the thought that he was going to do something dramatic to join her.

    We're both not fans of the perfect fairy tale ending but I was sort of rooting for those two. I guess from day one I knew that this wouldn't be just the typical love story though. Things were always going wrong for them; it's the perfect example of the classic Romeo and Juliet scenario only way cooler because it deals with hot men and good music :)

    I wish I could make this comment so much better, but I'm too amazed to type right now <3
    I fucking love you for this

  • i loved it, i absolutely LOVED it!
    i definitely cried at the end,
    but it was definitely worth every single tear that ran down my face.
    you are an amazing writer,
    && i know that whatever you decide to do with the sequel will be absolutely amazing.
    && just know that you'll definitely have a reader with me(:

  • So she died?

  • That was beautiful in some sick evil way, you know what I mean? Sick and evil because she died, and beautiful because even though it was sad it was beautifully written. Plus, a story without a fairy tale ending is a breath of fresh air. And I didn’t want to admit it, but I did cry.

  • STUPID ALLIE! STUPID CAT! STUPID PADIO!

    That chapter was the most emotionally written chapter I've ever read
    Not only on mibba but everywhere! I was so lost into the chapter! My
    Mind was 100% on it. It doesn't look like a happy ending at the moment ):

  • You my friend, are obviously trying to make us all cry. This chapter was so freaking sad. How Addie is distancing herself in hope Oliver will too.. Wow. I can completely relate to that. I've done that before. And I love how you incorporated the song into all of this. For some reason, I feel like this story is going to have a really sad ending. And I don't want it too! :(

    You're writing is so beautiful. I love it so much.

    Dibs on making your banner, Doll. :D

  • We were learning about osteosarcoma today at uni. She is very unlucky to be diagnosed with stage three osteosarcoma, I was told that this stage was rarely seen. Poor Oli too.

  • so i just read the few new chapters that i didnt know was up. i must check my emails sooner rather than later! my oh gosh. the last chapter i just read almost had me in a few tears, oliver just wants to help and addie is just pushing him away so much ): its all a bit upsetting really, but thats good in a way because that means you've written it perfectly for people to get emotional about it! i really love this story, its so moving. but i dont like addie right now >: oliver is just trying to help and she is being such a... such an evil person! i feel sorry for oliver, he is helpless now that she is being mean. but i really cant wait for the next update! :D

  • I hate to say that over the past chapters i've grown to hate addie...seriously I wanna slap her xD
    and I feel soo sorry for poor oliver, who has no clue what to do anymore :(

    you know what I like about the story? that there isn't that much concersation, becaus it isn't needed.
    it's not boring or anything, and I think too much conversation would ruin the feeling of the story...
    :)

  • fracking addie. grr. I just want to shake her violently.
