What a hideous life he had chosen, how painful was the loneliness he endured because he didn't have the courage to trust someone again. To trust someone entirely because in love there is no other way.

About This Quote

What a hideous life he had chosen, how painful was the loneliness he endured because he didn't have the courage to trust someone again. To trust someone entirely because in love there is no other way. If you love someone, there is no other way. You either love them or you don't.

You can't intentionally lie to them and pretend to be something you're not. The problem is that we choose to lie to ourselves often. We fool ourselves into believing that we can change if we want to, or that we don't want to get hurt again.

That's not real love. Real love means taking chances and being vulnerable with people you care about.
