Misc. Love 38...

Because sometimes, forgetting is easier on the heart

If it were going to happen, it would have already happened. (Admittedly, even while I'm thinking this, I'm hoping it's not true. It's too simplistic, and when you apply the statement to almost any situation, frankly, it doesn't hold up. I mean, what does its not having happened yet have to do with preventing it from happening in the future? Nothing! Is it a predictor of things to come? Who knows! I don't want the statement to be true, of course. It's just true for now. That gets my hopes up, which just lets me down, so I need to stick with this thinking-you see.) -Jill A. Davis, Ask again Later

and they say we're too young, but maybe they're too old to remember

everyone wants someone who wants somebody else.
and cares for someone who couldn't care less about them.
people everyday and everywhere go through this vicious cycle.
of pleasing and teasing.
no one is truly content.
the heart hungers for love , but it's lust that keeps it pumping.
we get what we'd kill for.
and trade it in for something not even worth living .
some will never find what's real.
and others will settle for anything.
bitter looks and jealous stings supposedly make you stronger.
but eat away at your insides.
the weak forgive and forget.
the strong remember it every waking moment and apply it to the future.
the brain knows what it needs.
the human heart is a mystery.
-Vanessa Boccio

This moment was real too, even if you couldn't tell at first glance. It was fake on the outside, but so true within. You only had to look, really look, to tell. -Sarah Dessen, Just Listen

Is it really true?
Could you save yourself  for someone who 
could love you for you?
So many times we just give it away 
to someone who, someone who...
you met in a bar, in the back of a car 
and for a moment you felt important
but not in your heart.
- Senses fail

We can take this as slow or as fast as you want to, as long as we take it somewhere. -Zane, The Heart Seekers

People can call it passion. Or lust. Or Obsession. I don't really care. When I'm with him, it's the only time I feel completely alive. If you've never felt the power of that, then I feel sorry for you. -The A List : Girls On Film

This won't last forever so let me make this count.

Sometimes love isn't firecrackers. Sometimes love just comes softly. - Love Comes Softly

Everything about love is random, so why try and bring order to it? It's not worth worrying about. I know we could just move in together and that would make everything much easier, but it works both ways. It's easier to walk out, it's easier to be unfaithful, it's easier for everything to just disappear. If I'm going to invest my emotions in another human being again, then I'm going to make sure if it doesn't work out it'll be the messiest, most savage divorce ever. - Mike Gayle, My Legendary Girlfriend

In fairytales, when the mask came off, the handsome prince still loved the girl, no matter what --and that alone would turn her into a princess.- Jodi Picoult, Nineteen Minutes

If he's not the guy, if what he needs from you just isn't there... let him go. Break his heart and make it a clean break. But if you really think you can love this guy, I'm talking scary, messy, no emotions barred need. If you're ready for that, think about what you're about to lose. -Buffy The Vampire Slayer

If only there was a love version of the money-back guarantee. The if you fell hard, and it didn't work out, your mind would simply erase the experience from your memory and you'd be brand new again, without that wound on your heart or the scar tissue that formed around it  -Back in Black the A-List

I've thought for a long time that we were going to end up together, so I didn't really care so much about the when of it. Now, though, the long road is starting to seem like the infinite road. -Jill A. Davis, Ask Again Later

Even big-screen romances have 'it's not going to work' moments. It's nice to strive for romance in life. What are you going to do, throw in the towel because you might get your heart broken?- Drew Barrymore

I guess, if anything, it's about taking chances, even when you think you're all out of chances. It's about giving forgiveness and unconditional love, even when it seems like you should only do the opposite. It's about trusting that God puts people in your life at certain times so that you can capitalize on the opportunity. It's all about the possibility. It's all about what you do with those possibilities. Life is short, but it moves so fast. Hang on and enjoy the ride. And when someone comes along with whom you enjoy spending the ride with ... hold on tight. -Samantha Mott
