Caring Quote by Lauren Blakely
““He had never admitted he had a problem, and maybe if he had she would have stayed longer or tried harder. As it was, she simply felt free now. Being with him had been a long, slow suffocation. Caring for someone who didn’t care one bit about changing was like being frayed thin. He hadn’t wanted what she had to give. She wasn’t really sure what it would be like to””
