Once a Gentleman Quotes

“I have lived with your stubborn male pride for some time now,” she said in a soft voice, enunciating each word slowly and deliberately. “And I have never complained. I allowed my deep affection for you—my love for you—to blind me to your weaknesses. I had always thought you so wonderful, so perfect, and I wanted so much for you to feel something of that for me, too. But I am tired of trying to make you care. I am tired of doing everything your way. I am tired of having my own feelings ignored. I am just…tired.”
