Being Vulnerable In Love Quotes

“Forgiveness was complicated. When someone hurt us, betrayed us, they took something from us, trust, a belief that life was predictable, faith in people. It was easier to stay angry at someone else than to admit how vulnerable we were. We could all get hurt. And the people we loved the most were the ones that could hurt us the greatest. We were most vulnerable to them.
But what was love if not giving those parts that scared us.”
― Jacqueline Simon Gunn, Chasing Kat

“All that interior violence and complication to defend themselves from the very tenderness.”
― Susana Fortes, Waiting for Robert Capa

“It's weird how much you have to hold back when you're secretly in love with someone. But then again, the whole point of love is getting close enough that you no longer have to hold back all the...gross parts. I'm pretty sure at some point love makes room for the gross parts.”
― Becky Albertalli, Kate in Waiting
