“I want someone whose heart is big enough to hold me.”

“My heart wasn't big enough to hold everything I felt, but I couldn't bear the thought of asking him to wait while I caught up.”

“You want to set a goal that is big enough that in the process of achieving it you become someone worth becoming.”

“I want to try with someone who loves me enough to try with me. I want to grow old looking at the same face every morning. I want to grow old looking at the same face every night at the dinner table. I want to be one of those old couples you see still holding hands and laughing after fifty years of marriage. That's what I want. I want to be someone's forever.”

“I didn’t need anyone to take care of me, but I did want someone to love me enough to try.”

“I want to be with someone who understand me, who at least cares enough about me to try to understand.”
