I cannot be with someone who takes pleasure in inflicting pain on me, someone who can’t love me.

E.l. James
About This Quote

We all want to love and be loved. Even if we don’t know what love is, we still know that we want it and we want to experience it. Unfortunately, some people can’t love or be loved. And they never will. It makes no sense for them to try because they can’t love, can’t be loved, and don’t deserve the things that give happiness.
