Colleen Hoover
- Perfect Marriage
Our marriage hasn't been perfect. NO marriage is perfect. There were times when she gave up on us. There were even more times when I gave up on us. The secret to our longevity is that we never gave up at the same time.

- Flaws
We're all full of flaws, hundreds of them. They're like tiny holes all over our skin. And like your fortune said, sometimes we shine too much light on our own flaws. There are some people who try to ignore their own flaws by shining light on other peoples to the point that the other person's flaws become their only focus. They pick at them, little by little until they rip wide open and that's all we become to them. One giant, gaping flaw.

I love you." she said firmly. "With all the shattered pieces of this heart, I love you. And if that's not good enough then don't drag this out. Let me go. If I can't have your heart then you can't keep mine prisoner. That's how it works, love. You don't get to have it all.
Nikita Gill
- And You Gave Her Away
She was the kind of girl that made the diamond stars in your bleak sky, the sun glow gently on your sleeping face, the night seem a dreamlike story yet untold. She was the best thing for you. And you just... gave her away. So now, when the stars disappear, when the sun burns your eyes, when the night is full of dark secrets. You will remember her. And "I fucked up." Won't even begin to cover it.

- Unpredictable
It terrifies me how talented you are at turning your emotions on and off. How you can be so kind and loving one moment then cold like ice the next. Whenever you open your mouth, I never know whether it's going to be I love you or It's over.
By-A.E
I'm scared of happiness. It always leaves. I'm scared of loving people. They always vanish. I noticed that the things that unravel a smile across my lips always fade away. Sadness is like my best friend. I fathom that the deadliest things in life are permanent; they never leave, or vanish, but the things that unravel a smile across my lips always leave.

Anything that annoys you is teaching you patience. Anyone who abandons you is teaching you how to stand up on your own two feet. Anything that angers you is teaching you forgiveness and compassion. Anything that has power over you is teaching you how to take your power back. Anything you hate is teaching you unconditional love. Anything you fear is teaching you courage to overcome your fear. Anything you can't control is teaching you how to let go.
Buffy to Angel
- Amends
What about me? I love you so much. And I tried to make you go away. I killed you and it didn't help. And I hate it! I hate that it's so hard and that you can hurt me so much. I know everything that you did because you did it to me. Oh God, I wish that I wished you dead, but I can't.
Anya to Spike
- Entropy
This whole time I've been coming off, all hell-bent and mad, wanting his head, you know? When really I can't sleep at night... Thinking that it has to be my fault somehow. What if he's just pretending. What if he never wanted me the way I wanted him?
Spike to Buffy
- Touched
A hundred plus years and there's only one thing I've ever been sure of: you. I'm not asking you for anything. When I say, 'I love you' it's not because I want you, or because I can't have you. It has nothing to do with me. I love what you are, what you do, how you try. I've seen your kindness and your strength. I've seen the best and worst of you. And I understand with perfect clarity exactly what you are. You're a hell of a woman. You're the one, Buffy.
r.m. drake
I can't remember what it was like before you, and I don't even know how we got here. But maybe that's exactly what I needed; someone who could make me forget where I came from and someone who could make me love without knowing how to fall.
r.m. drake
She brought out the storm in people, because she knew wherever there were dark skies and wild winds, lied a truth. A truth that described how much love one can leave be behind the moment they accept all the pain they have lived. And that is all she ever wanted. For everyone around her to embrace their storms and make them fall in love with their own violent winds.
Beau Taplin
- Forgiveness
I forgive you. Not for you, but for me. Because like chains shackling me to the past I will no longer pollute my heart with bitterness, fear, distrust, or anger. I forgive you because hate is just another way of holding on, and you don't belong here anymore.
Jordan Sarah Weatherhead
In the depths of hell, I learned who I was. It takes a strong soul to endure so much pain and heartache and still make it out alive; to not get stuck in the deep burning pit of misery. It takes a resilient creature to claw their way back up out of the darkness and back into reality where your nightmares can finally turn into dreams.

- You're My Reminder
You were an unpleasant memory. Now you're my reminder. You're my reminder to be more cautious of the people I choose to invest my time in. You're my reminder to see people for who they are, not for what I wish them to be. You're my reminder to fall in love with how people treat me, not with the words they speak. But if by chance I happen to fall for the wrong one again, you're my reminder... I can survive anything.

I know that you're no good for me, but it's worse without you. Even when I try not to want you, I end up needing you. You're my favorite joy, yet my endless pain. I tried to hate you, but the only thing I hated is how much I love you.
J.C-tumblr
I wanted him in the bluntest way. I wanted his lips, his hands, his arms. I wanted him the way the ocean wants the shore, constantly reaching and running back. I wanted him the way the rain wants to fall, the way the sun wants to shine, the way words want to be read. I wanted him to infinity, to the millionth degree. No amount of rain could douse the fire I had in me for him.
Eroria
Butterflies don't flutter in my stomach, when he comes to say hi, instead I feel the burning betrayal of my own foolish heart. And I wonder as I slowly loose my breath, Why him? Why her? Why me? So I'll let my silence reign over peace, and let him be fore stolen glances and fragile moments.

If I ever get married... I want to build a box with our wedding date written on the outside. On the inside we would put two sealed love letters we wrote on why we fell in love and a glass of wine from the year we started dating. If things ever get too hard, and our love fades, we will open the box, drink the wine and read the letters we wrote to each other to remind us of how much our love means and for us to never give up.
F. Scott Fitzgergerald
Her heart sank into her shoes as she realized at last how much she wanted him. No matter what his past was, no matter what he had done. Which was not to say that she would ever let him know, but only that he moved her chemically more than anyone she had ever met. That all other men seemed pale beside him.
