The problem with falling in love is falling back out of it again, usually because you've fallen in love with a lie. That happens as often as not.

About This Quote

Falling in love is not always easy. When you’re in it, you think you know everything about the other person, but you don’t. You get to love the best parts of the person, but also get to see the worst. There are times when you think you’ve fallen for the wrong person.

But you get through all of that and then find out that you did fall for the right person after all. You end up falling back in love again, this time for real.
