Emily Giffin

We're free. Michael Ondaatje

I think a lot of times when you meet someone you feel like you need to appear like you're not interested in them so that they'll be more interested in you. But what happens when you start showing him that you actually like him? What's he gonna do then? Play the tape forward; how do you keep a guy like that? I don't want to sign up for that. I just don't want to end up in a relationship that isn't fair ever again. Taylor Swift

Because women realize it's not worth buying an entire pig just... Andy Rooney
