Misc. Love 45....

I'd rather choose to fall in love and be hurt. Sometimes I can't even sleep because I love someone so much. And there's always sadness in our lives. It's that sad feeling that keeps us going. Because if we can overcome that sadness, we can hope for happiness in the future. -House

But they'd loved each other. With the wisdom of time and passing of years, she knew that. She knew, too, that love didn't evaporate. It faded, perhaps, lost its weight like bones left out in the sun, but it didn't go away. -Kristin Hannah, Firefly Lane

You've got my heart tied to a string. Everything I feel is your doing.

One day you fall for this boy and he touches you with his fingers and burns holes in your skin with his mouth and it hurts when you look at him and it hurts when you don't, it feels like someone's cut you open with a jagged piece of glass.

His words were like heaven in my hurricane.

You've got to risk love. It doesn't mean that you're never going to get hurt but the pain you feel will never compare to the regret that comes from walking away from love. -Ghosts of Girlfriends Past

Love anything and your heart will be wrung and possibly broken. If you want to make sure of keeping it intact, you must give it to no one, not even an animal. Wrap it around carefully with little hobbies and little luxuries; avoid all entanglements. Lock it up safe in the casket or coffin of your selfishness. But in that casket- safe, dark, motionless, airless- it will change. It will not be broken; it will become unbreakable, impenetrable, irredeemable. To love is to be vulnerable. --C.S Lewis

If you're willing to break up over an ice sculpture, you guys should absolutely not get married. Because who gets to choose the ice sculpture, who should take out the trash, who has to stay home and make the many pizzas, that's the little stuff. What are you going to do when the big stuff comes along? What are you gonna do when a tornado hits your house, or you have problems with your kids, or one of you gets cancer? At some point, the crap is going to hit the fan. And that is why now, before you make the commitment, you have to ask yourself: Is that person in bed next to you worth the trouble? Do you love him...or her so much that no disease, no disaster could possibly pull you apart? – Desperate Housewives

Thoughts--even fears-- were airy things, formless until you made them solide with your voice, and once given weight, they could crush you. -Kristin Hannah, Firefly Lane

This is a story of boy meets girl, but you should know up front, this is not a love story.

Human beings are funny. They long to be with the person they love but refuse to admit openly. Some are afraid to show even the slightest sign of affection because of fear. Fear that their feelings may not be recognized, or even worst, returned. But one thing about human beings puzzles me the most is their conscious effort to be connected with the object of their affection even if it kills them slowly within. -Sigmund Freud

Time ticks by; we grow older. Before we know it, too much time has passed and we've missed the chance to have had other people hurt us. To a younger me this sounded like luck; to an older me this sounds like a quiet tragedy.

My life is damn near perfect, but every once in a while I think about 'that guy', and the fairytale thing we had. I wondered if we'd still be together. Because the minute it got hard, the minute it stopped being a fairytale-- I cut and ran. Real life is hard. Real life takes work. Real life is sometimes thoughtless and mean, but that doesn't cancel out the love. So if you don't love this girl-- walk away. But if you look at her and you know she's the one , you owe it to yourself to give it a second chance. -Private Practice

He's so contagious.
He turns my pages.
He's got me anxious.
He's what I waited for.

Never forget what took me a lifetime to learn: You have only one heart, be true to it. -Beyond Borders

You want me to act like we’ve never kissed, you want to forget;
pretend we’ve never met , and I’ve tried and I’ve tried, but I haven’t yet…
You walk by, and I fall to pieces.
— Patsy Cline

Maybe I would have protected my heart from some things, but would that really have been better? To hold myself apart because I was too scared that something might not be forever. -Sarah Dessen, This Lullaby

This is about you not being able to commit, because committing means saying goodbye to whatever unfulfilled fantasy of love you've concocted after seeing too many Meg Ryan movies. But men don't come and make everything all better - they're only human. And you shouldn't punish him because you were forced to grow up so fast you never learned how to let someone else take care of you. He's not your father, okay, he's not necessarily gonna disappear at the first sign of trouble. And, as scary as it is to consider letting yourself be truly vulnerable with another human being, what's even scarier is that deep down inside you know you picked this man...and if you run away from him now, you'll be running away from being the kind of person you always wanted to be. - Scrubs
