talk is cheap

The awkward silence: the silence between two people who have nothing to say to each other.

The perfect silence: the silence between two people who have a million things to say to each other, but choose not to do it at that moment, because they know they will have a million other opportunities to say them, because they are going to be in each other’s life’s forever. Usually you walk away from the perfect silence feeling like you just had the best conversation ever.
