“I'm very happy to give you affirmation. I want to give you affirmation. But if I don't give you enough, you should ask for it.'
'Isn't asking for affirmation––I don't know––needy?'
'Isn't the point of something like this that the other person tries to meet your needs, and you try to meet theirs?'
'Is this what they teach in therapy? Because it's blowing my mind.”
― Curtis Sittenfeld, Romantic Comedy

“I cross to her and cup her face in my hands. “If we were different people in different circumstances, I would get down on my knees and beg you to stay at the end of the winter. I would move heaven and earth and the Underworld itself to keep you with me.” She blinks those big hazel eyes at me and licks her lips. “If…” She sounds so hesitant, I simultaneously want to gather her into my arms and don’t want to move in case she never finishes that sentence. She doesn’t leave me hanging long. “If we were different people, you wouldn’t have to beg. I’d plant my roots right here in this house, and it would take a catastrophic event to make me walk away.”
― Katee Robert, Neon Gods
