What do you think my chances might be of finding a soul mate in the group of you? I'll be lucky if I can just find someone who'll be able to stand me for the rest of our lives. What if I've already sent her home because I was relying on some sort of spark I didn't feel? What if she's waiting to leave me at the first sign of adversity? What if I don't find anyone at all? What do I do then, America? . Kiera Cass
About This Quote

As someone who has lived many years, I know that the toughest part of being single is facing the practicalities of life on your own. Most people are comforted by the idea of finding love, but what about those who have never found anyone? I’m not saying that all of us who are single need to find our soul mates. What I am saying is that we should not settle for second best. Why should we settle for less than what we deserve? Sure, there are some people out there who will be able to stand you for the rest of your lives, but what about those who want nothing more than to leave you at the first sign of adversity? What if you don’t find anyone at all? What do you do then, America?
