1 " Lying on the couch there was just bone-chilling silence. There were no screaming fights or swearing arguments-we were both too tired, too done for that. There was just the silence I’d broken hearts, of shattered dreams, and of painful tomorrows we knew were coming. "
― Lindsay Detwiler , Still Us
2 " Life’s too short. Sure, you weren’t perfect together. But guess what? Nobody is. Love is hard work, married or not. And when you find someone who fits you, someone who makes you happy, you hang on to it like it’s a one-of-a-kind flavor doughnut. And when it crumbles, you pick up the crumbs and put it back together. "
3 " You can’t tear apart a relationship and then expect things to be the same. You just can’t. "
4 " Love isn’t easy, Lila. You know that. No matter what you choose, there’ll be a struggle and sadness. So I guess you just need to think about what pathway has the best chance of making you happy, which path is worth the sadness for the end game, whatever that might be. "
5 " Most of all, there was a realization we hadn’t faced yet, even though we probably should have: we wanted different things in life.And maybe, just maybe, our love wouldn’t be enough to bridge that gap. "
6 " Your love isn’t easy. But you know what? Easy isn’t always better. Sometimes the things we fight the hardest is the best. "
