"Things are sweeter when they’re lost. I know—because once I wanted something and got it. It was the only thing I ever wanted badly…And when I got it it turned to dust in my hands."
F. Scott Fitzgerald (via scarydads)
- Mom: Don't ever compromise yourself for a man.
- Me: What ?
- Mom: Don't be so quick to settle down with any guy, please.
- Me: What are you talking about?
- Mom: Be sure about who you're with. A relationship between a man and a woman is the hardest. You see you and I ? We can't stand eachother half the time, but we have to live with eachother, cause you're my daughter, and I am your mom. You see you and your siblings? You don't like them most of the time, but you have to live with them cause they're your brothers and sisters. But see a man, someone who isn't blood, someone you can cut off and never see again, that's the hardest relationship. So if you ever do compromise, make sure he's special.
- Me: woah
