Top Sad Relationships Quotes

Sad Relationships Quotes By Alex Potvin

There's pretty much no way for me to answer that without sounding like an asshole, so maybe you could do me a solid and not make me. — Alex Potvin

Sad Relationships Quotes By Donald Miller

A YEAR OR SO AGO I READ AN ARTICLE THAT SAID in the next five years we will become a conglomerate of the people we hang out with. The article went so far as to say relationships were a greater predictor of who we will become than exercise, diet, or media consumption. And if you think about it, the idea makes sense. As much as we are independent beings, contained in our own skin, the ideas and experiences we exchange with others grow into us like vines and reveal themselves in our mannerisms and language and outlook on life. If you want to make a sad person happy, start by planting them in a community of optimists. — Donald Miller

Sad Relationships Quotes By Sanhita Baruah

I asked myself only when he needed my help, "How will the broken heal the wounded? — Sanhita Baruah

Sad Relationships Quotes By Donald Antrim

One of the sad features of most close relationships is the decay of intimacy as a function of time, turmoil, and all the little misunderstandings that inevitably occur between people, leading them, year in and year out, toward the same tired conclusions: conversation falters; friendships fail. — Donald Antrim

Sad Relationships Quotes By Natalie Bina

J Abrams was driving off into the big stupid vermilion sky, and even though the color had been my favorite, I was sure that from now on, every time I looked at it I would feel nothing but sadness. — Natalie Bina

Sad Relationships Quotes By Karen Quan

I have always wanted to give you the world, so I started giving you pieces of the oceans that kept us apart. — Karen Quan

Sad Relationships Quotes By Josh Lanyon

How sad that I couldn't get myself sober to share a life with him, but I could do it to show him I didn't need him. — Josh Lanyon

Sad Relationships Quotes By Pablo Neruda

Like them you are tall and taciturn, and you are sad, all at once, like a voyage. — Pablo Neruda

Sad Relationships Quotes By Matt Fraction

Because of this.
Because your funny.
Because you know Lolita.
And Nabukov and James Mason too.
Because you're cute and funny and i'm kind of sad and you haven't tried hitting on me once.
Because you weren't even trying ... — Matt Fraction

Sad Relationships Quotes By Kathy Hepinstall

Every father wants a daughter to meet the right God, and the right man. Perhaps her father had failed with both. — Kathy Hepinstall

Sad Relationships Quotes By Brendon Urie

It's ignorant! The stereotype is guys that are weak and have failing relationships write about how sad they are. If you listen to our songs, not one of them has that tone. Emo is bullshit! If people want to take it for the literal sense of the word, then yes, we're an emotional band, we put a lot of thought into what we do. People always try to stereotype us, but we don't fit the emo stereotype. — Brendon Urie

Sad Relationships Quotes By Rachel Gibson

One of the most difficult things he'd ever done was turn away and leave her standing in the shadows. — Rachel Gibson

Sad Relationships Quotes By Robin S. Sharma

No one wants to fail. So most of us don't even try. Sad. We don't even take that first step to improve our health or to deepen our working relationships or to realize a dream. — Robin S. Sharma

Sad Relationships Quotes By Jason Robert Brown

Maybe I'd see how you could be so certain that we had no chance...at all. — Jason Robert Brown

Sad Relationships Quotes By Dennis E. Adonis

Marriage to the groom does not means that his heart belongs to the bride. — Dennis E. Adonis

Sad Relationships Quotes By Lori Jenessa Nelson

Loving you was like jumping into the dark side of a pool, and drowning. — Lori Jenessa Nelson

Sad Relationships Quotes By Joseph P. Kauffman

Many people have failing relationships because they have not really fallen in love with each other, but they have fallen for the mental images they have created of one another. We assume we know our partner, we think about them nonstop, creating many different ideas of who they are, what they like, and how we will be together, then as soon as our partner does something that doesn't fit with our mental image of them, we become sad, upset, confused, or heart broken. Our partner did not cause our suffering; we caused it, through our false perceptions and mental images. — Joseph P. Kauffman

Sad Relationships Quotes By Mandy Nachampassack-Maloney

Healthy relationships, even those that eventually end with breakups, aren't a mistake. They're a chance to grow and learn, about who you are, who you want to be, what kind of relationships are worth your time and energy. I hate this assumption that when people end a romantic relationship they leave a piece of their heart behind, they shatter and will be unable to offer their next partner their whole, pure self. People aren't puzzles or vases. People have an endless capacity both to learn and to love. People also aren't property. They do not become less valuable or tarnished by use. — Mandy Nachampassack-Maloney

Sad Relationships Quotes By Melodie Ramone

He was seven years old the summer that his life ended. He'd always felt like his life was taken the moment that truck rammed into his father and sister. Or at least, the life he would have had was ended before it even began. — Melodie Ramone

Sad Relationships Quotes By Chuck Tingle

It is a sad but very real truth that there is no future for relationships where spaghetti and chocolate milk does not play a major role. — Chuck Tingle

Sad Relationships Quotes By Tom Robbins

Heterosexual relationships seem to lead only to marriage, and for most poor dumb brainwashed women marriage is the climactic experience. For men, marriage is a matter of efficient logistics: the male gets his food, bed, laundry, TV, pussy, offspring and creature comforts all under one roof, where he doesn't have to dissipate his psychic energy thinking about them too much - then he is free to go out and fight the battles of life, which is what existence is all about.
But for a woman, marriage is surrender. Marriage is when a girl gives up the fight, walks off the battlefield and from then on leaves the truly interesting and significant action to her husband, who has bargained to 'take care' of her. What a sad bum deal.
Women live longer than men because they really haven't been living. Better blue-in-the-face dead of a heart attack at fifty than a healthy seventy-year old widow who hasn't had a piece of life's action since girlhood. — Tom Robbins

Sad Relationships Quotes By John Darnielle

Cool parents, I thought, are the ones who know nothing. It made me feel a little sad for mine, but I didn't say any of this. — John Darnielle

Sad Relationships Quotes By Pamela Cummins

When you are feeling sad and lonely because you are single, remember that there are a lot of people stuck in bad relationships who wish they could be in your shoes. — Pamela Cummins

Sad Relationships Quotes By Michele Young-Stone

It's sad how things devolve, how if you hear just the early part of Freddie and Veronica's story, this romantic romp between a blue-eyed guitarist and knobby-knuckled songstress, you imagine they'll go on forever. — Michele Young-Stone

Sad Relationships Quotes By George Vaillant

Aging happy and well, instead of sad and sick, is at least under some personal control. We have considerable control over our weight, our exercise, our education, and our abuse of cigarettes and alcohol. With hard work and/or therapy, our relationships with our spouses and our coping styles can be changed for the better. A successful old age may lie not so much in our stars and genes as in ourselves. — George Vaillant

Sad Relationships Quotes By Laurie Halse Anderson

No, I am never setting foot in this house again it scares me and makes me sad and I wish you could be a mom whose eyes worked but I don't think you can. — Laurie Halse Anderson

Sad Relationships Quotes By Christopher Brookmyre

Is the burden of independent thought wearing you down? Do you dread the indecision that awaits every time you open your wardrobe? Are you embarrassed by your reticence when you hear other people discuss current affairs, music, relationships, etcetera? Don't worry, you're not alone. Help is just a pair of clippers away! We've helped thousands of sad losers avoid confronting their loneliness and inadequacy, and we can do the same for you. We'll tell you what to wear. We'll tell you what to think. We'll tell you what music to listen to. and most importantly, we'll bring you together with lots of people exactly the same as yourself - it's just like having friends! — Christopher Brookmyre

Sad Relationships Quotes By Steve Maraboli

Breakups can be sad, but sometimes tears are the price we pay for a freedom we need. — Steve Maraboli

Sad Relationships Quotes By Suzy Kassem

WILL YOU DANCE WITH ME

As we stand here,
Hand in hand,
Under the neon lights
Of Truth and Love.
I'm asking you to
Dance with me.
To twirl,
Kick,
Drop,
Jump,
And fly
With me.
Skidding and
Sliding across
The dancefloor of life,
I want you to
Glide with me.
Through the
Saddest and
Happiest songs,
The fastest highs
To the longest and
Slowest lows,
I want you to
Flow through
Them all
With
Me. — Suzy Kassem

Sad Relationships Quotes By Heather Demetrios

My life was being planned in sentences that started with 'We' instead of 'I', yet it felt like the most natural transition in the world. — Heather Demetrios

Sad Relationships Quotes By Rainbow Rowell

My girlfriend is sad and quiet and keeps me up all night worrying about her. — Rainbow Rowell

Sad Relationships Quotes By Kate Morton

I don't have many friends, not the living, breathing sort at any rate. And I don't mean that in a sad and lonely way; I'm just not the type of person who accumulates friends or enjoys crowds. I'm good with words, but not spoken kind; I've often thought what a marvelous thing it would be if I could only conduct relationships on paper. And I suppose, in a sense, that's what I do, for I've hundreds of the other sort, the friends contained within bindings, pages after glorious pages of ink, stories that unfold the same way every time but never lose their joy, that take me by the hand and lead me through doorways into worlds of great terror and rapturous delight. Exciting, worthy, reliable companions - full of wise counsel, some of them - but sadly ill-equipped to offer the use of a spare bedroom for a month or two. — Kate Morton

Sad Relationships Quotes By Viola Shipman

I've had an amazing life. One filled with blessings I could never have imagined.

Depressed is the last thing I am. Realistic, yes. Sad, never. — Viola Shipman

Sad Relationships Quotes By Jess

Because we have loved profoundly,
Because we have given much,
Because we have hoped passionately,
Because we have desired intensely,
We allow ourselves to be infinitely hurt. — Jess

Sad Relationships Quotes By Milan Kundera

The engineer's ready capitulation, however, did not hide from the poet's mother the sad realization that the adventure into which she had plunged so impulsively
and which had seemed so intoxicatingly beautiful
had no turned out to be the great, mutually fulfilling love she was convinced she had a full right to expect. Her father was the owner of two prosperous Prague pharmacies, and her morality was based on strict give-and-take. For her part, she had invested everything in love (she had even been willing to sacrifice her parents and their peaceful existence); in turn, she had expected her partner to invest an equal amount of capital of feelings in the common account. To redress the imbalance, she gradually withdrew her emotional deposit and after the wedding presented a proud, severe face to her husband. — Milan Kundera

Sad Relationships Quotes By Susan Elizabeth Phillips

Something snapped inside her. "Of course I'm afraid! Relationships do bad things to me." He started to respond, but the pain had gone on long enough, and she didn't want to hear it. "You know what I want? I want peace. I want a good job and a decent place to live. I want to read books and listen to music and have time to make some female friendships that are going to last. When I wake up in the morning, I want to know that I have a decent shot at being happy. And here's what's really sad. Until I met you, I was almost there. — Susan Elizabeth Phillips

Sad Relationships Quotes By Michael Brent Jones

Hopefully not by sad experience, you will find that some interactions most private, can be the coldest and most closed off, and some interactions seemingly common or casual can be the most intimate. — Michael Brent Jones

Sad Relationships Quotes By Holly Bourne

Though the world was hazy, all I could think about was love. And how I'd never had it. How I would never understand what it felt like to fall asleep knowing another person was thinking of you. I would never have someone touch the small of my back as they steered me through a crowd. I would never know the contour of someone's face off-by-heart, and yet not be bored with it. And, as I sank to the grey, chewing-gum stained carpet, all I could think was how sad that was. — Holly Bourne

Sad Relationships Quotes By Farrah Abraham

I have no relationships and I'm, like, sad sometimes. — Farrah Abraham

Sad Relationships Quotes By Leona Lewis

Thought I couldn't live without you
It's gonna hurt when it heals too
Even though I really love you
I'm gonna smile cause I deserve to
Quickly I'm learning to love again
All I know is I'mma be ok — Leona Lewis

Sad Relationships Quotes By Graham Greene

Christmas it seems to me is a necessary festival; we require a season when we can regret all the flaws in our human relationships: it is the feast of failure, sad but consoling. — Graham Greene

Sad Relationships Quotes By Judy Blume

I made promises to you that I'm not sure I can keep. — Judy Blume

Sad Relationships Quotes By Lori Jenessa Nelson

Dear Lover...
you are the only man, who never hurt me, but broke my heart. — Lori Jenessa Nelson

Sad Relationships Quotes By Aaliyah

It's really a sad story, and I liked that. The songs on this album talk about relationships in every aspect. — Aaliyah

Sad Relationships Quotes By Eve Dangerfield

You are gonna get it now sweetheart," he grunted, seizing her nipples and massaging them roughly.
"Aw, what are you gonna do Max? Blow a load and get all sad about it afterwards? — Eve Dangerfield

Sad Relationships Quotes By Fiona Wood

Van Uoc felt the stab of a sad truth: she and her mother would never be as close as her mother and grandmother had been.
Her mother got up, stretched her tidy, graceful frame and headed for the kitchen. Van Uoc wanted to be able to offer her some comfort, but what could she say? Her mother was right. The two of them represented an irreconcilable cultural split. Distance between them was inevitable. — Fiona Wood

Sad Relationships Quotes By Evan Sutter

It's sad to see how many relationships start as just a distraction from boredom, a cover up so they don't have to ever deal with the true pain below — Evan Sutter

Sad Relationships Quotes By Maggie Stiefvater

We sat like that for a long while, and when we stood up, all my sad things were in boxes, and Beck was my father. — Maggie Stiefvater

Sad Relationships Quotes By C. JoyBell C.

I cannot have a man who is afraid of everything, I don't have the time to soothe insecurities and fears, I cannot have a man who is standing on a stone by a creek, watching for the fish to swim by and every time he sees a fish he says "Oh look, this fish scares me, I wonder what this fish means, this fish might mean- this, or this fish might mean- that" for God's sake, they are just fish, and they don't mean anything! Such a sad thing, so many fine, strong men standing on top of little stones, pointing at fish all the time! Such a waste! Such a waste of time! I can only have a man who will leap into the water, not minding the damn fish and whatever other little things that scare him. I need to have someone who is braver than me; if I am a pirate, he has to be the pirate Captain, if I am a pirate Captain he has to be the flying dragon. — C. JoyBell C.

Sad Relationships Quotes By A.Z. Green

Being a 'potential mate' was something rather different and much more complicated. It was when two people had the potential to become like one person, knowing each other's moods and feelings in a way no one else could. Being aware of their presence in a crowded room was just one example. If they were sad or angry, their mate would sense it to a point of feeling the emotion themselves. — A.Z. Green

Sad Relationships Quotes By Scot McKnight

The idea that relationships are not a strategy is potent; and the sad commentary proceeds to say that often relationships are seen as a strategy, a means to accomplish great things - except love and relationship are not what is really wanted. We want to appear relational so people will like what we have to offer. It's the difference between wanting a good marriage and loving the person you married. — Scot McKnight

Sad Relationships Quotes By Patrick Somerville

I don't think of love in terms of relationships. It happens in terms of seconds, but it goes away like that, too. I pass a nurse, I love her, it ends when I go around a corner; at a restaurant I see a forlorn man at the table next to me, and I love him, and the conversation pulls me back, and it's ended. A patient comes in, and she is sick, and I love her, and then she dies, and I never see her again. This is what I live for. Don't think that it's sad. — Patrick Somerville

Sad Relationships Quotes By Sanhita Baruah

You realize you've forgiven people, your past and yourself when you don't speak bad about them anymore, even if you're encouraged to do so, even if you remember you were once brutally broken because of them ...
you just move on, let go, let them be and let yourself be ... — Sanhita Baruah

Sad Relationships Quotes By Katherine Reay

Self-protection keeps you from love, Mr. Knightley-all love. I am so sad at how I've kept them at a distance-the Muirs, Alex, Father John, Kyle, Hannah ... Anyone and everyone who has ever stood by me. I played God in our relationships. I determined their value by how much I let them in, by how much I let them determine my worth. I'm not God. And I don't need to work so hard anymore ... — Katherine Reay

Sad Relationships Quotes By Ellen Hopkins

I think the more
she has failed at things like relationships
and parenting, the more she has cut
herself off from feeling bad about those
things. And if you don't let yourself feel
bad, sooner or later you stop feeling
good, too. You insulate yourself. Build
up layers, like stacking paper, everything
growing heavier. And when the weight
becomes too much, those layers compress.
Become hard. Sad, really, to think that
Kristina has turned herself into cardboard. — Ellen Hopkins

Sad Relationships Quotes By Patricia Love

My only regret is that no one told me at the beginning of my journey what I'm telling you now: there will be an end to your pain. And once you've released all those pent-up emotions, you will experience a lightness and buoyancy you haven't felt since you were a very young child. The past will no longer feel like a lode of radioactive ore contaminating the present, and you will be able to respond appropriately to present-day events. You will feel angry when someone infringes on your territory, but you won't overreact. You will feel sad when something bad happens to you, but you won't sink into despair. You will feel joy when you have a good day, and your happiness won't be clouded with guilt. You, too, will have succeeded in making history, history. — Patricia Love

Sad Relationships Quotes By Dora J. Arod

I had a dream about you. You were crying, and I couldn't tell if it was because you were sad or because you'd been laughing too hard. So I decided to find out by telling you that I'd just heard from the cops, and your mother had been murdered. Before I got to the punch line you started sobbing in a different manner, so I realized you'd been laughing earlier. By that time the mood had changed, and I decided it best not to deliver the punch line after all. So I sat down next to you and put my arm around you and tried to console you for your perceived loss. — Dora J. Arod

Sad Relationships Quotes By Turcois Ominek

We're all guilty of dedicating time to people who didn't value it. — Turcois Ominek

Sad Relationships Quotes By Leslie Jamison

I'd be lying if I wrote that I remember exactly what he said. I don't. Which is the sad half life of arguments - we usually remember our side better. — Leslie Jamison

Sad Relationships Quotes By Jessica Brody

I mean, how sad is it that I needed a freaking Facebook profile to tell me my boyfriend was no longer my boyfriend? As if Facebook is the official record keeper of relationships and you have to confirm all breakups and hookups with this sacred online registrar before you can consider them certified and approved. — Jessica Brody

Sad Relationships Quotes By Mike Mills

My experience, with both my parents, is that grief has a lot of down, sad things, but I was also really emotionally raw, in the first year after each of them passed. Flowers smelled more intensely, my relationships were hotter, and I was more willing to risk. I was going for it a lot more. I was 'unsober' and I wasn't playing by my rules. — Mike Mills

Sad Relationships Quotes By Bob Dylan

Situations have ended sad,
Relationships have all been bad. — Bob Dylan

Sad Relationships Quotes By Mark Pellegrino

You develop relationships with people, and suddenly a family of actors and crew that you became so close to are now not around anymore. I'm not too sad about it because I got to move on to something else, but it's sad the way these things turn out. — Mark Pellegrino

Sad Relationships Quotes By Dennis Lehane

Some ghost of myself still lived back in the days when we'd shared a bed and talked of the future. But that love we'd had and those selves we'd been were gone, placed in a box like old photographs and letters you'd never read again. — Dennis Lehane

Sad Relationships Quotes By Eli Easton

My mom told me once - relationships end until the one that doesn't. So you can't be sad, really. Because if the wrong ones didn't end, you wouldn't be available when the right one came along. — Eli Easton

Sad Relationships Quotes By Shannon Perry

So while I was busy saving you from Hell,
you were pushing me further to it; the poison murdering me well. — Shannon Perry

Sad Relationships Quotes By Lauren Groff

But my best friend from college was silent for a long time. She, of all of my friends, had seen the parade of sad wrecks through my life, date after bad date after bad boyfriend. She was the one who'd picked up the pieces after the musician, the investment banker, the humanitarian who was human to everyone but me.
When at last she spoke, she said, Oh, hell.
And, after that: Hallelujah. — Lauren Groff

Sad Relationships Quotes By Jason Versey

Chasing your tale? Sometimes we relive past accomplishments, failures and or past relationships to the point of exhaustion. When we do this, I liken it to a dog chasing its tail, just spinning round and round and going nowhere fast. Constantly chasing our own tales has the same effect on us. It leaves us in a state of dizzying immobility. When we wrap our arms so firmly around our past we leave little room to embrace our present future and that, my friends, is a sad tale to tell. ~Jason Versey — Jason Versey

Sad Relationships Quotes By Jennifer Probst

Connections only caused a ripping pain no one deserved. — Jennifer Probst

Sad Relationships Quotes By Arthur C. Clarke

He found it both sad and fascinating that only through an artificial universe of video images could she establish contact with the real world. — Arthur C. Clarke

Sad Relationships Quotes By Catherine Lacey

We did not exist, the we we thought we'd always be. — Catherine Lacey

Sad Relationships Quotes By Irene Tomkinson

An angry woman is a bitch. An angry man is strong, whereas, a sad man or a fearful man is a wimp. A sad or fearful woman is frail. — Irene Tomkinson

Sad Relationships Quotes By Laura C. Schlessinger

But the reality is that women today do not think of themselves in the context of helping "their man." Women today have been brainwashed into thinking that efforts in that direction are in the category of oppression, subservience, and catering to frail male egos. It is sad that this is the prevalent point of view, because interdependence is what ultimately feeds both the man and the woman what they truly need to be happy. — Laura C. Schlessinger

Sad Relationships Quotes By Avinash Babu Anand

Love is a Beautiful Thing that makes us to Adjust ourselves Forcely — Avinash Babu Anand

Sad Relationships Quotes By Alishah Khan

It's been a year and 3 months since we've kissed, and I rather have the ghost of his mouth on my lips than kiss anyone else. — Alishah Khan

Sad Relationships Quotes By Michael Pollan

What is most troubling, and sad, about industrial eating is how thoroughly it obscures all these relationships and connections. To go from the chicken (Gallus gallus) to the Chicken McNugget is to leave this world in a journey of forgetting that could hardly be more costly, not only in terms of the animal's pain but in our pleasure, too. But forgetting, or not knowing in the first place, is what the industrial food chain is all about, the principal reason it is so opaque, for if we could see what lies on the far side of the increasingly high walls of our industrial agriculture, we would surely change the way we eat. — Michael Pollan

Sad Relationships Quotes By Boyz II Men

Because you let our love just fall apart
You no longer have my heart — Boyz II Men

Sad Relationships Quotes By Lloyd John Ogilvie

But one of the saddest, most deprecating misuses of power is the withholding of love, affirmation, and delight from other people. Few things keep people in line with our wishes more than an attitude of reserve or aloofness. It is paradoxical that in the power struggle of relationships, the one who loves and encourages the least, gains the most power. This puts people on edge, keeps them guessing, and plays on their need for assurance about their worth. — Lloyd John Ogilvie

Sad Relationships Quotes By Steve Maraboli

It's sad that we get attached to the way certain people abuse us. It took me a long time and a lot of heartache to realize that it's okay to miss someone, but not want them back. — Steve Maraboli

Sad Relationships Quotes By Mary-Louise Parker

I don't believe in endings, happy or sad, so my relationships with you continue to this day. They are the kind of relationships you have with a pair of skis you know you'll never have to strap to yourself again. Maybe you never really liked skiing, but enjoyed being a person who could say, "Looks like I'll be hitting the slopes this weekend!" So you kept on even though it cost too much to get down a hill. Gave you windburn. I see nothing weird about keeping those skis in the basement. They offer a little nostalgia for crappier times. More importantly, they serve as a reminder that I no longer have to ski. Wake — Mary-Louise Parker

Sad Relationships Quotes By Roxanne Hargrove

Many people lack the passion to keep trying in their relationships. I believe that is why people start to resent their lovers and start cheating on them. It's sad really. Love is so wonderful and so worth fighting for. — Roxanne Hargrove
