The Matchmaker's Mistletoe Mission (Boots and Bouquets, #0.5) QUOTES

1 " Yeah, I've been there. Sometimes you're not with the right person, and you don't even know it until it's time to say good-bye. But here's the thing. I don't think geography or job or anything else matters if you've found that one person you want to spend the rest of your life with. You know what I mean?"
She nodded. "I do. If you're in love with someone---truly in love with them---there's no obstacle to the relationship that can't be worked out. You'll figure out a way. "

2 " Sometimes that happens. It can be a huge issue or the smallest thing that makes two people realize they don't work as a couple. Then you move on and hope the next time is better."
He looked back at her. "Yeah. And you learn things about yourself every time you go through a relationship so that hopefully you don't make the same mistakes again. "

3 " What do you typically like to do on a first date with a woman?"
"That answer depends on the woman, since you're not all the same. Some women actually would enjoy beer and pool on a Friday night"---he stopped to give her a raised brow to emphasize his statement---"while others would want to have dinner at a nice restaurant. Some might want to hang out at home, order pizza and watch a movie just so we could talk and get to know each other. Another woman might be more interested in going to see a basketball game. Or maybe go to a museum."
"And you'd be interested in doing any of those things."
He shrugged. "I'm interested in doing a lot of different things. I'm not just a rancher. I like to get out of my element and learn something new."
She stared at him. Dammit. She loved that answer. He really thought about what a woman might want to do. And he was open to new experiences. A lot of guys just did their own thing, expecting the woman to fall in line.
"That's...very nice. "

4 " I never asked if you were married or in a committed relationship."
"Neither. I've had a couple of long-term relationships that didn't work out."
She laid her hand over his, and the warmth of her touch seeped through him.
"I'm sorry."
He shrugged. "It's okay. Just haven't found the right one."
"Sometimes they're not. Which doesn't mean it hurts any less when you find that out. "

5 " Sometimes it's hard to end things even when you know it's the right thing to do. "
