What the heck is true love? I remember feeling, back when I was 12 and 'going' with this girl, 'Is this true love?'
I was always slightly afraid of marriage because I didn't like the idea of being tied down. Even when I met Brian, when I was in my mid-thirties, I didn't actually see it on the cards for us. He was a huge rock star, and our lives were very different.
Every day I grapple between 'I'm going to get married' and 'I'm going to spend the rest of my life alone with a poodle.'
I don't know if I want a steady relationship, but I'm terrified of losing you.
I stood there watching Phoebe arrange the pillows and the sheets. She isn't thinking that I... I mean, she doesn't think that she and I would... WHAT?
I came seriously close to getting married four times, and each time I backed off in fear or for one reason or another. Each occasion was different, but in hindsight when I look at the people involved, it wasn't a bad thing what I did. I think it may have been more complex had the marriage taken place.
I think I want to be in love with you but I don't know how.
It is painful to doubt the sincerity of those we love.
I want to get married but I look at husbands the same way I look at tattoos. I want one, but I can't decide what I want, and I don't want to be stuck with something I'd grow to hate and have surgically removed.
I never thought of getting married again. I'm quite difficult to live with, I think.
I don't miss anything by being a bachelor. I don't know any happily married couples, not even my parents.
Every relationship has their ups and downs, and, you know, when you start having more downs than ups, you know, you gotta take a look at your relationship and be like, you know, 'Is this something that I'm supposed to be doing?'
Everyone disliked their partners at some time or another, she knew that. But she’d spent her hours in the dark wondering whether she’d ever liked him. Would it really have been so much worse to spend those years alone? Why did there have to be someone else in the room while she was eating, watching TV, sleeping?
What about us? Can i see you again? You can say no. You'd crush all my hopes and dreams, but it's an option.
Am I really admitting that my sister is determined to marry a man she has only seen once and doesn't much like the look of? It is half real and half pretense - and I have an idea that it is a game most girls play when they meet an eligible young men. They just...wonder.
I couldn't help wondering, is my husband so unattractive that no woman has ever wanted him? Except me, of course. I must have wanted him, in a way, once, but I've forgotten why, and I was too young to know what I was choosing.
I think a lot of people are in relationships because they've been in them for a long time and they don't know how to end them.
I found marriage somewhat stifling. I don't know that I am the kind of man who ought to be married.
So why did I think about her every second? Why was I so much happier the minute I saw her? I felt like maybe I knew the answer, but how could I be sure? I didn't know, and I didn't have any way to find out. Guys don't talk about stuff like that. We just lie under the pile of bricks.
I don't know if I even believe in that anymore. The right guy. The perfect guy. The one. I've lost faith in "the". How do you feel about "a" and "an"? Indifferent. So you're considering a life without articles?
Now that we were alone,i was self-conscious and cranky again.Why had i wanted to stay?if i had been programmed to want to be with dylan,heads were gonna roll,i promise you that.
I just don't know how to date.
Do you ever think that your life might be easier if you weren't in love with me?" — Edward Cullen
If I found the right guy, I think I would get married. Maybe. I just feel like it's just a contract. Why sign any more contracts, really?
If you're going to be married for a long time, I think you'll have a fair number of moments where you question things, no matter how good your marriage is.
