“I can’t get angry at them for something I’ve been guilty of. So let them look. Let them stare. Let them wish they were going home with the most beautiful woman in this bar—in this town—for all I care. I’ve been there. Many times, in fact, when it comes to you. So if anything, I sympathize with them because they can want you, but they’ll never truly have you.”
I never understood why my father gave up his entire life for my mother, but right now, I can see it clearly. Because when you find the one person in the world who sees you—who takes the time to collect every broken piece of your spirit and helps you put it back together—you don’t let them go.
“I thought about what you said yesterday, and you’re right—I am bothered by you talking about a future with another man because I so desperately want that man to be me.”
“If I had a thirty-year plan, you’d be the woman I would want to share it with.”
“Because so long as I love you and you love me, we can get through anything together. That much I can promise.”
