“Happily ever after does not mean they don't experience exasperation with each other, or are somehow exempt from life's hardships and misery.

Because your life without this one other, very special person would be something not full, but only half-alive”

“There was this experiment where pigeons were put in a cage and had to peck a button to get food. At first the pecking always produced food, so the pigeons quit pecking pretty quickly when the scientists changed the setting so food wouldn’t come out anymore. Then the button gave out food every other peck, and then every third one, and when the food was cut off, the pigeons took longer to stop pecking it. But when pecking the button gave out food randomly—so sometimes they got something and sometimes they didn’t—the birds just kept on pecking forever, hoping that maybe this time they’d get fed.”

She stole a glance at the floor number. Still only five. “I’m totally not your type.” “That’s ridiculous.” “Is it?” She managed to tear her gaze from his and stared at the elevator doors—and their reflections. His eyes hooded, he studied her exposed neck like it was a piece of art…or his favorite dessert. Licking her lips, she took another gulp of coffee. Hilary wanted to say no. She was afraid this wouldn’t end well,”
