| All these quotes are from the book "He's Just Not That Into You: The No-Excuses Truth To Understanding Guys" by Greg Behrendt. Go read it. It opened up my eyes to a lot of things. “If he’s not calling you, it’s because you are not on his mind. If he creates expectations for you, and then doesn’t follow through on little things, he will do same for big things. Be aware of this and realize that he’s okay with disappointing you. Don’t be with someone who doesn’t do what they say they’re going to do. If he’s choosing not to make a simple effort that would put you at ease and bring harmony to a recurring fight, then he doesn’t respect your feelings and needs. “Busy” is another word for “asshole.” “Asshole” is another word for the guy you’re dating. You deserve a fucking phone call.”
“I'm about to make a wild, extreme and severe relationship rule: the word busy is a load of crap and is most often used by assholes. The word "busy" is the relationship Weapon of Mass Destruction. It seems like a good excuse, but in fact in every silo you uncover, all you're going to find is a man who didn't care enough to call. Remember men are never to busy to get what they want.”
“Here's something else to think about: calling when you say you're going to is the very first brick in the house you are building of love and trust. If he can't lay this one stupid brick down, you ain't never gonna have a house baby, and it's cold outside.”
“Don’t be flattered that he misses you. He should miss you. You are deeply missable. However, he’s still the same person who just broke up with you. Remember, the only reason he can miss you is because he’s choosing, every day, not to be with you.”
“It's very tempting when you really want to be with someone to settle for much, much less -- even a vague pathetic facsimile of less -- than you would have ever imagined. Remember always what you set out to get and please don't settle for less. These guys exist because there are a lot of women out there who allow them to.”
“A man who wants to make a relationship work will move mountains to keep the
woman he loves”
“We're taught that in life, we should try to look on the bright side. Not in this case. In this case, assume rejection first. Assume you're the rule, not the exception. It's liberating. But we also know it's not an easy concept. -He's not just into you”
“If the guy you’re dating doesn’t seem to be completely into you, or you feel the need to start ‘figuring him out,’ please consider the glorious thought that he might just not be that into you. And then free yourself to go find someone that is.”
“Don’t spend your time on and give your heart to any guy who makes you wonder about anything
related to his feelings for you”
“Life is hard enough as it is without choosing someone difficult to share it with”
“It's an odd thing to think about, but try imagining that your breakup is a disease. If you were told that you had a serious yet curable disease, would you go get hammered on a regular basis? Eat two bags of Oreos? Chain-smoke, pop, pills, get stoned, or fuck around? NO YOU WOULDN'T. You would take great care of yourself and cut all the unhealthy things out of your life. Because you love yourself, and even if you don't right now, WE DO. So put the (insert vice here) and start moving on.”
“We (men) would rather lose an arm out a city bus window than tell you simply, “You’re not the
one.” We are quite sure you will kill us or yourself or both—or even worse, cry and yell at us.”

There are moments when it's too quiet. Particularly late at night or early in the mornings. That's when you know there's something lacking in your life. You just know. I'd forgotten that I don't get involved because the pain just isn't worth it. all that flattery and attention distracted me from any pain that might have been lurking around the corner, but of course the pain got me in the end. it always does. 
Darling, forever is a long, long time and time has a way of changing things. "Look, we don’t need to put a label on it. I just need some consistency. I need to know you’re not going to wake up in the morning and feel differently."  You know that feeling of waiting for someone. I mean really waiting for someone - standing in front of a restaurant in the cold and having hundreds of people pass you on the sidewalk. And you don't want to do anything else, because you're afraid you might miss something - that somehow if you don't spot him right away, he'll walk right by. So you stand there and you don't do anything except think about how you're standing there. Occasionally you might look at your watch, or check your cell phone to see if it's accidentally on silent, even though you already checked for that a minute ago. That's what this is starting to feel like. Worrying is stupid. It's like walking around with an umbrella waiting for the rain.
( Wiz Khalifa ) 
Things just don't work out. That's the most simple explanation for life. You can dwell on why something that didn't or shouldn't have happened, but it did. So just move on. You can sit there crying over some boy who did you wrong, or you can go out and live life to it's fullest. Everyone needs reasons why things are the way that they are, but over thinking over powers your brain. It gets you hanging onto the past when what you really need to be doing is moving forward and focusing on greater things. When things don't work out, find something that will. I realized I've been with so many shitty guys, that when a good one came around, I played the same game with him that I had been so use to playing. & I ended up breaking his heart, like they all broke mine.

I'm a straight forward kinda girl. If you ask me what I'm thinking I'll tell you, no sugar coating. Cause that's not what life's about. It's about dealing with the pain that comes along. So if you are going to tell me how to feel, don't lie. If I ask something, I want to know the trust, not the lie. Sometimes I wonder where we went wrong, and regardless of what you always said, I'm not that strong. And I either need you to really be here for me, or I need you to just leave. © yourbreakingme_qts

Hold your head high, and your middle finger higher. Let him know what he's missing.
-Megan Fox They think they know who I am. But I don't even know who I am. 
True love cannot be defined by any means. It's a cluster of adjectives; it's crazy, passionate, complicated, painful - but most importantly, true love is real. It's that feeling of being inexplicably drawn to another person. Love isn't about finding someone who you can escape reality with. It's about finding someone who makes reality worthwhile.
Best way not to get your heart broken, is to pretend you don't have one. -Charlie Sheen 
Saying goodbyes are always hard. You hug a little tighter, smell a little deeper, attempt to commit the feel of the person to your memory. You want time to stop, but you can't and you know you can't. You know that you have to go on. So you cling on for a moment, and press your lips to their cheeks and murmur, "I'll see you when I see you." The sad thing is we're never happy with what we've got. We're silly, selfish and naive always believing that things could be so much better when really, this is the best it'll get. It's no wonder why love never lasts. It's because we're always taking it up that notch and expecting something magnificent. Perfect. Well let me tell you something - there's no such thing as perfection. 
You can try your hardest, you can do everything and say everything, but sometimes people just aren't worth trying over anymore. They aren't worth worrying about. It's important to know when to let go of someone who only brings you down. For a kiss to be really good, you want it to mean something. You want it to be with smeone you can't get out of your head, so that when your lips finally do touch you feel it everywhere. A kiss so hot and so deep you never want to come up for air. You can't cheat your first kiss. Trust me, you don't want to. Because when you find that right person for a first kiss, it's everything. -Greys Anatomy

| not my usual kind of post at all. i haven't been able to find any good quotes lately. i <3 this brotip site though as you can see. its so funny and so true! 
When a man says he doesn’t know what he wants, he means he doesn’t want you
but since he doesn’t have anyone else at the moment, you’re better than nothing until he finds what he’s looking for. 
Everyone has that person that they go back to. Each time, they swear it’s different, and they're done for good. But they aren't. They wish they were, but the thing is, they can’t be. Because that person they keep going back to, they can’t be completely happy without them. 
I myself I'm made entirely of flaws, stitched together with good intentions. 
Maybe sometimes people don't change, maybe you just never really knew who they were. 
"Even if you think the flame has died, there's at least one lyric that'll hit that last hot spot, and then you'll find yourself as fucked as you were the day you lied and said you never wanted to see him again." - John Mayer 
We can't help ourselves. We see a line, we want to cross it. Maybe it's the thrill of trading the familiar for the unfamiliar. A sort of personal dare. The only problem is, once you've crossed it's almost impossible to go back. 
Here’s a lesson for every single girl out there: Never, ever settle. You may think you aren’t gorgeous, smart and have too many insecurities too count. But there is going to be someone in the world who truly loves you for you. Don’t ever think that you’ve got to put up with some boy’s shit because he’s the first one in a long time to show some interest. You are all beautiful in your own individual way so never lower your standards. 
I just don't know if I wanna do it anymore, get close to somebody so they can leave again. Everything you have been told is a lie. Things don't happen for a reason. They just occur and you deal with it. People will always leave you. Everybody has somebody they use. And everybody lies. They get mad and say things they don't mean. But once they are said, they are out there, unable to take back. Watch your mouth but more importantly watch your back. There is always someone standing there ready to stab you. 
“Humans have a knack for choosing precisely the things that are worst for them.”
– Albus Dumbledore

There is a woman behind every successful man & there is a jerk behind every strong & independent woman. 
But the struggles make you stronger and the changes make you wise. And happiness has its own way of taking its sweet time. 
There’s a difference between giving up, and knowing when you've had enough. 
Destiny is for losers. It’s just a stupid excuse to wait for things to happen instead of making them happen. -Gossip Girl 
When someone hurts me, I go on a subconscious mission to drag someone into my life, make them rely on me, and then crush them to the ground. I go out and seek revenge, but not on the ones that hurt me, no, on innocent bystanders. I’m a cruel son of a bitch. And I don’t even know why I do this.
-apatheticaspirations 
“I felt something catch in my throat, a sudden surge of sadness that caught me unaware, almost taking my breath away. That was the thing - you never got used to it, the idea of someone being gone. Just when you think its reconciled, accepted - someone points it out to you, and it just hits you all over again.”
-Sarah Dessen 
It's like you hear a song on the radio, but you've gotta see what else is playing before you decide you actually want to listen to that song. What happens if a great song came on and you missed it though, so you flip back, but all you get is the news. It's like going from something to nothing. 
Everything that happens to us, the good and the bad, is part of us. It took me a long time to realize that it doesn't have to define who we are. We get to decide.
- CSI 
I guess what hurts the most isn't that I don't have you. It's that at one point, I did. It's that I can go to sleep missing you, dream that I'm with you, then wake up and realize once more that I don't have you. Maybe what hurts the most is not that I'm no longer enough, but at one point, I was. 
I may be walking away, but the whole time I was praying you'd hold me back. You'd grab my wrist and yell in my face why I need you and how you love me. I wanted you to fight for me. 
Sometimes it takes a good fall to really know where you stand. I could fill a thousand pages telling you how I felt and still you would not understand. So now I leave without a sound, except that of my heart shattering as it hits the ground. 
High school is a joke. Sure the education is a must, but who wants to be around bitchy teenage girls who make fun of you whenever they get the chance? Not me. Fuck high school. -Megan Fox | | |
