“The truth is, you ultimately decide who your ‘one’ will be. And when you do decide, my hope is that you choose the one who gives you the support and freedom you need to fully express yourself in the world, so you never have to suppress who you are and pretend to be anyone you are not. Love isn’t just a feeling—it’s an intentional practice, a daily ritual, a verb” (p. 62).

“Self-awareness in a relationship is recognizing when our past hurts and emotional states are controlling our thoughts and behavior. It’s being able to see how our insecurities interfere with our ability to connect with our partner and how our energy and behavior impact our loved ones and thus our relationship with them.

“If we don’t discipline our minds, we can easily fail to see the person we love. Instead, we’ll see our mother, our father, or an ex. Our task is to challenge ourselves to question some of our narratives about the other person and, instead, communicate.

“For some of us, our fear of not being enough will motivate us to figure out a way to be ~needed~ in our relationships. So instead of looking for a project—someone we can fix, so we can be the hero and they can depend on us and never leave us” (p. 24). CLOCKED! ⏰
