Life Quote by Anonymous
““Men compartmentalize these things in a way I don’t think women can. Men can say, ‘We’ve split up, life moves on, I’ll find someone else,’ and then never think about that person again. Women, I think, bruise more deeply, love longer.” He finished his mouthful of food. “You think Daisy will take me back?” “I think that if you feel the thunderbolt, you will love her whether or not she takes you back.” I could feel the sadness rise in me.””
