Being hurt Quote by Judy Peris
“I refrain from giving advice to couples who are undergoing a rough time because I do not know the connection between these people, and I do not know how much they are hurting. We hurt differently. They are the ones who know how they feel about each other, and they know themselves better. I prefer to tell them to do what they think is right and we will deal with the consequences.”
