I am unlovable... I have tried to involve myself in other people, in relationships, and even - in my sillier moments - in love. But it doesn't work. Something in me is broken or missing and sooner or later the other person catches me Acting or one of Those Nights comes along. Jeff Lindsay
About This Quote

This quote from a woman who has been hurt over and over again is a perfect example of how the only person to blame for your pain is yourself. Not everyone is capable of forming long-term relationships, but that does not mean that you cannot love or that you cannot try. The definition of love has become so distorted that we now think that love makes us vulnerable and weak. This is far from the truth. Love can be the greatest thing in the world and it can also take one’s life if it is not handled correctly.
