relationship

"Never marry at all, Dorian. Men marry because they are tired, women, because they are curious: both are disappointed."

"Everyone is different from each other, but that doesn’t mean everyone should be indifferent to each other."

"That's when I finally got it. I finally understood. It wasn't the thought that counted. It was the actual execution that mattered, the showing up for somebody. The intent behind it wasn't enough. Not for me. Not anymore. It wasn't enough to know that deep down, he loved me. You had to actually say it to somebody, show them you cared. And he just didn't. Not enough."

"I am so extreme that I do parkour like a caterpillar gyrates. My movements are slow and methodical, but eventually my free running takes flight. I love the same exact way, and my romance has the essence of a butterfly."

"I need to figure out the secret. I need to work out how to keep things flying back to me instead of always flying away."

"I have two hands, so when I’m networking and I meet two new people, is it OK to shake both their hands at once? Or would it be more appropriate to organize a group hug?"

"I like my relationships like I like my eggs. Over easy."

"A true gentleman is one that apologizes anyways, even though he has not offended a lady intentionally. He is in a class all of his own because he knows the value of a woman's heart."

"It is the same way with dating. The time you are most prepared for dating is when you don't need anyone to complete you, fulfill you, or instill in you a sense of worth or purpose."

"To get people to notice you, you must be unique. If I were invisible, everybody would see me for who I am as a person."

"I'm not lost for I know where I am. But however, where I am may be lost."

"I love letting her know how much she means to me. A love in secret is but a shadow that’s cold and lonely."

"They lay silently. She was staring at something across the room. She was making him feel uncomfortable. 'It wouldn't work. It's the attraction of opposites,' he said.We're not opposites.'I don't mean just you and me. Women fall in love when they get to know you. Men are just the opposite. When they finally know you they're ready to leave."

"I know I'm not going to be in your head all the time. But once you know me, I'll be forever in your heart."

"She cuts me deep with her words, with her withholding of words, and with her knife. I’m not sure which is the most painful."

"Everything I’ve learned about handshakes is from hands-on experience. Due to hygiene, I only network with rubber glove manufacturers."

"I called his broken promise heartbreaking, and he called it growing up. Oh, that’s mature—blame it on maturity."

"People are islands,' she said. 'They don't really touch. However close they are, they're really quite separate. Even if they've been married for fifty years."
