Coming Apart Quotes

“Relationships are living things—they require tending. Like plants, they flourish when they are cared for. Our ended relationships remind us of how much nurturing was withheld, how many resentments piled up, how much communication never occurred, how many needs went unfulfilled. They challenge us to see how we were lazy last time and what we must do differently in order to cultivate our next relationship.”
― Daphne Rose Kingma, Coming Apart: Why Relationships End and How to Live Through the Ending of Yours
