“Think long and hard before offering your heart to someone who can only accept it part-time”

“You cannot force someone to accept an expression of love. You can only offer it. If it is not accepted, you must respect the other person's decision.”

“Sometimes a person has to accept who they are before they can share it with someone else.”

“You fight so hard, so long, to cut someone out of your heart, but it’s not always your heart that betrays you.”

“We spend so much time defending our choice to do this that it becomes hard to show any vulnerability at all. There's only so many times you can handle someone asking about your fall back for when things don't work before you start thinking that maybe the fall back should just be your plan.”

“You know how is it when you love someone? And the hard part, the bad part, the Jerry Springer Show part is that you never stop loving someone. There's always a piece of them in your heart.”
