One True Loves

by Taylor Jenkins Reid

Good things don’t wait until you’re ready. Sometimes they come right before, when you’re almost there.

Flirting is probably just as much about falling in love with yourself as it is with someone else.

You don’t tie yourself to something unless you’re scared you might float away.

When you love someone, it seeps out of everything you do, it bleeds into everything you say, it becomes so ever-present, that eventually it becomes ordinary to hear, no matter how extraordinary it is to feel.

We are two people who are madly in love with our old selves. And that is not the same as being in love.

Don’t ever let anyone tell you the most romantic part of love is the beginning. The most romantic part is when you know it has to end.

I don’t think that true love means your only love. I think true love means loving truly. Loving purely. Loving wholly.
