The purpose of relationship is not to have another who might complete you, but to have another with whom you might share your completeness.
The beginning of love is the will to let those we love be perfectly themselves.
Love does not consist in gazing at each other, but in looking outward together in the same direction.
Every couple needs to argue now and then. Just to prove that the relationship is strong enough to survive. Long-term relationships, the ones that matter, are all about weathering the peaks and the valleys.
An intimate relationship does not banish loneliness. Only when we are comfortable with who we are can we truly function independently in a healthy way, can we truly function within a relationship. Two halves do not make a whole when it comes to a healthy relationship: it takes two wholes.
We can improve our relationships with others by leaps and bounds if we become encouragers instead of critics.
For the two of us, home isn't a place. It is a person. And we are finally home.
The only way a relationship will last is if you see it as a place that you go to give, and not a place that you go to take.
Some of the biggest challenges in relationships come from the fact that most people enter a relationship in order to get something: they're trying to find someone who's going to make them feel good. In reality, the only way a relationship will last is if you see your relationship as a place that you go to give, and not a place that you go to take.
Things must be felt with the heart.
No one can make you feel inferior without your consent.
The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched - they must be felt with the heart.
And no relationship is perfect, ever. There are always some ways you have to bend, to compromise, to give something up in order to gain something greater.
Well, it seems to me that the best relationships-the ones that last-are frequently the ones that are rooted in friendship.
In the coldest February, as in every other month in every other year, the best thing to hold on to in this world is each other.
A guy and a girl can be just friends, but at one point or another, they will fall for each other... maybe temporarily, maybe at the wrong time, maybe too late, or maybe forever.
To know when to go away and when to come closer is the key to any lasting relationship.
Some think love can be measured by the amount of butterflies in their tummy. Others think love can be measured in bunches of flowers, or by using the words 'for ever.' But love can only truly be measured by actions. It can be a small thing, such as peeling an orange for a person you love because you know they don't like doing it.
Trouble is a part of life, and if you don't share it, you don't give the person who loves you enough chance to love you enough.
I mean, if the relationship can't survive the long term, why on earth would it be worth my time and energy for the short term?
The beginning of love is to let those we love be perfectly themselves, and not to twist them to fit our own image. Otherwise we love only the reflection of ourselves we find in them.
Three things I want in a relationship: Eyes that won't cry, lips that won't lie, and love that won't die.
The way to love anything is to realize that it may be lost.
In true love the smallest distance is too great, and the greatest distance can be bridged.
