The Romantics

Leah Konen

Top 10 Best Quotes

“I'm asking you to forget everything you know about True Love. The real kind doesn't make you selfish and shortsighted. Real love makes you better than you ever knew you could be.”

“You could love someone, you could pick the right person, you could give your life to them, and you could. Still. Get. Hurt.”

“Worth noting here is a common little mind trap that you humans frequently fall into: thinking much more about whether the other person likes you than whether you actually like them.”

“1. Romantic: One who ruthlessly believes in love in its finest form and impresses those feelings onto his or her various relationships. May result in scaring off partners, falling for the wrong person, and desperately trying to turn life into a movie with glamorous Old Hollywood actors. May also result in some of the best, most inspiring, and deepest relationships around.”

“Maybe even though what they had was beautiful, it wasn't meant to last forever.”

“Inspirational shit works a lot better, he mused, when your whole life isn’t already ruined.”

“In fact, it is quite possible that you think you've found me (love) when you haven't.”

“Half the time, people just want to be assholes, so they call it rebellion. ”

“Everyone thinks their romance is classy AF. No one sits there comparing their coupledom to the stuff of Lifetime movies. And no one thinks it will go away because, if you did, you'd never take a chance. Luckily, the human heart is not that logical.”

“2. Adventurer: One who primarily seeks out a partner for life's adventures (and misadventures), and who doesn't feel the need for overly romantic gestures, saccharine phrases, or deep discussions about the future. May result in downplaying more serious emotions or situations in favor of "just seeing where it goes." May result in fun, fly-by-the-seat-of-your-pants relationship that keeps both partners excited and fulfilled.”
