1 " I had trusted him. I had even trusted him after he betrayed me. I was too open for my own good. I still gave that man my heart even after he destroyed it. "
― Jacqueline Simon Gunn , Let Love Rule (Where You'll Land #3)
2 " I liked the idea of him, a man who seemed to carry both the hard edges and the soft centers. A man who would not only touch my body but reach my soul. And it was my soul that was begging for him. "
3 " I hate guys like that, people like that. It’s all about what they want. The attempts to repair are only for their own needs. It’s got nothing to do with love. "
4 " It happens all the time. People lie to themselves or their therapists because they’re ashamed or they don’t want to deal with the reality of their circumstances. Sometimes people are manipulative and twist the narrative to get something from the therapist: attention, empathy, love. Or the most likely reason: Sometimes the truth really hurts. "
5 " This was life. We had to learn to take the ending of something painful and let it become something else. Give it meaning. Use it as an opportunity to grow, to try something different, to be someone better. "
6 " I just wanted to make sure you were being honest with yourself. Because in the past, I have repeatedly compromised what I wanted and twisted what I needed to rationalize staying with someone even when, intuitively, I knew it wasn’t right. It’s self-inflicted gaslighting. "
7 " I love the way I feel when you touch me. "
