About This Quote

When you are in a relationship, you will always feel like you have a chance to make it work. You will always think that the other person is the right one for you. Wrong. There will come a point in your relationship where you are just simply not good enough for your partner.

You will get rejected by them, verbally or perhaps physically. They may even break up with you or just shut you down altogether. You will feel that this was an inevitable part of being in a relationship, but you must remember that there is always hope for a second chance at love even if it doesn't seem possible.
