“I dream of a love that even time will lie down and be still for.”

Everyone seemed to really need/appreciate this last time I did it so I'm doing it again:

I only look back if it's my ass in the mirror

“There’s going to be a time, when he falls in love with someone else, and maybe she’ll be just like you. And maybe she won’t. Maybe you’ll look at her and think, what did she have that I didn’t? You’ll wonder what sort of special quality she had that filled the cracks in his soul, the way he said you never could. You’ll wonder what was wrong with you. Don’t doubt there’ll be a time, when he’ll see you with a guy you love, and he’ll wonder why he didn’t keep you when he had the chance. He’ll wonder why he hadn’t realized he was ready for a relationship sooner. He’ll regret not having you in his life. But you won’t.”
