Quotes & Sayings About Bad Times In Relationships

I work in the margins. The margins are where you'll find the nice people. You'll find real friends. You'll find honesty. You'll find integrity.

It didn't always come together easily nor does it always stay together easily. It's known very good times and very bad ones.

And like the world itself, our family is renewed by each baby. — Margaret Kennedy

The best advice I've ever been given is being handed a Bible. That's the blueprint for marriage that we go by, and that's what our marriage is grounded in. We also have other married couples who are examples in our lives. My parents have been married over 40 years, and both sets of grandparents for over 65 years.

Relationships, be they with friends or prospective mates, should be special. Each relationship deserved to be equal, unique, and not compared to any other relationship. The friendship, or more, should stand on its own, and not be held up by any one side. It should resonate with something inside you, connecting with the parts of you not everyone understands.

I had great friends, — N.E. Conneely
