Bonding over shared experiences from "summary" of The Lover's Dictionary by David Levithan

We have our own language, she says. The words we use mean one thing to us, but they mean something else to everyone else. It's not just our words. It's our experiences. Our references. Our sense of humor. It's the way we can both look at each other and know exactly what the other is thinking. We have a shared history, a shared vocabulary. We can communicate without saying a word. It's like we have our own secret code, one that only we can understand. Bonding over shared experiences means we have a connection that goes deeper than just words. It's about understanding each other on a level that goes beyond what anyone else can comprehend. It's about knowing that no matter what happens, we have each other. We have our memories, our inside jokes, our moments that belong only to us. This connection is what keeps us together. It's what makes us feel like we're not alone in this world. It's what gives us the strength to face whatever comes our way. We may not always see eye to eye, but we know that we have each other's backs. We have a bond that can't be broken, no matter what life throws at us. And in the end, that's all that really matters. Knowing that we have someone who truly understands us, who shares our experiences, who is there for us through thick and thin.
