"I told them all the great things I know about you and there were a lot. I was up there for a while. I didn't tell them everything, though. I left out the complicated stuff, like how it took losing you forever for me to truly find you. And how finding you turned me into someone else entirely. That's not what they came for. People want to hear you were great. Not that we were great, but also, sometimes, not so great. They want to know I miss you. Not that while I've been missing you, I've fallen for someone else. It's weird, though. I feel like the only one who would understand this is you. In a way, that makes sense. He was the one person you were yourself around. Of course he'd be that same person for me. Anyway, I left all that out and I kept it simple. I told them I loved you and that's the truth." - catch and release

She's totally unavailable, which may be why I can't get her out of my head, and maybe, and this is a whole new theory - I keep thinking of this other woman - the unavailable one - because I am so afraid that the first thing might actually work out and God forbid I ever do something that might actually make me happy. " - Scrubs

"Yesterday I thought that I was low as I could get. I had hit rock bottom ever since you up and left, but this morning when I saw you with somebody else, well needless to say that's when I started sinking even lower. And as far as where I am at today… there's two feet of topsoil; a little bit of bedrock, liMestone in between; a fossilized dinosaur; a little patch of crude oil; a thousand feet of granite underneath … then there's me." - Brad Paisley, "Two feet of topsoil"

"On the other hand, it's not like Andy feels threatened by Leo or feels hostile toward him. He simply disdains him in the typical, offhanded way that nearly everyone disdains their significant other's most significant ex. With a mild mix of jealousy and competitiveness that recedes over time." - Love the One You're With by Emily Giffin

"He has painted me into a corner, created a layer of deceit between me and the people I love. Sure, it is a small secret in the scheme of things, but it is still a secret, and it will grow-multiply-if I return his call. So I simply won't do it." - Love the One You're With by Emily Giffin

"Although I'm happily married, I feel a strange bond to him and don't want this to be it between us, forever." - Love the One You're With by Emily Giffin

"But as I stare into my husband's eyes, the wall between the two worlds crumbles-the world on the place last night and all that could have been, and my life with Andy, moving forward, in our home in Atlanta. A home with two, maybe three, cars in the garage. And a slobbering golden retriever chasing fuzzy yellow tennis balls across a lush, green lawn." - Love the One You're With by Emily Giffin

"'not telling me makes it a big deal.'" - Love the One You're With by Emily Giffin

"'Well, that's just great, Ellen. That's great,' Andy says, his voice drenched in sarcasm. 'Your ex-boyfriend is important to you. Just what every husband wants to hear.'" - Love the One You're With by Emily Giffin

"It is the way we used to talk-our between-the-lines language, seemingly nonsensical, but stepped in meaning. It is a way I've never talked to Andy-who is always so open, candid. I decide, for at least the hundredth time today, that one way isn't better than the other, they are just different." - Love the One You're With by Emily Giffin

"I fight the urge to rest my head on his shoulder, and close my eyes, realizing that this would be so much easier if I could more neatly categorize my feelings. If Leo was all one thing, and Andy another altogether. But it's not that simple or clear-cut-and I wonder if it ever is when it comes to matters of the heart." - Love the One You're With by Emily Giffin

"I wish I could freeze this moment, somehow delay my final decision, and just hang here in the balance between two places, two worlds, two loves." - Love the One You're With by Emily Giffin

"Suzanne pauses and then says, 'Do you love him?' I'm not sure who she means-Andy or Leo-but either way, I tell her yes, I do. 'Then don't do this,' she says, obviously talking about Andy. 'Suzanne,' I say, glancing down the hall toward Leo. 'It's not that simple.' 'Yes it is,' she says, cutting me off. 'See, that's the thing, Ell. It really is that simple.'" - Love the One You're With by Emily Giffin

"He closes with, 'I miss us'-which is more powerful and compelling than merely missing me-especially because I feel the same way. I miss us, too. I always have, and probably always will. Overcome with grief and the sense of impending, final loss, I touch his hand. Sometimes there are no happy endings. No matter what, I'll be losing something, someone." - Love the One You're With by Emily Giffin

"I suddenly knew that in spite of how happy I was to be spending my life with Andy, I wouldn't soon forget that moment, that tightness in my throat as I saw his face again. Even though I desperately wanted to forget it. Especially because I wanted to." - Love the One You're With by Emily Giffin

"But a lot of things had to happen before I married Andy and after that letter from Margot arrived in the mail. A lot of things. And one of them was Leo. The one I would love before I loved Andy. The one I would grow to hate, but still love, long after we broke up. The one I would finally, finally get over. Then see again, years later." - Love the One You're With by Emily Giffin

"If seeing him again-and merely touching his hand-could peel back so many layers of my heart, then did I ever stop loving him the way you're supposed to stop loving everyone but the one you're with? If the answer is no, then will the lapse of time or a change of geography really fix the problem? And regardless of the answer, what does the mere question say about my relationship with Andy?" - Love the One You're With by Emily Giffin

"Silence fills the airwaves once again, as I consider how to respond. I know what I should say. I should say that he's right-it wouldn't have made a difference. I should tell him that he was too late, and I would have made the same decision that Margot made for me. I should tell him that she was acting in my best interest. That Andy's still my best interest. But I can't make myself say any of this. I can't get over the feeling of being cheated. At the most, I was cheated out of the choice for a different life-a choice I had the right to make and that nobody else should have made for me. At the very least, I was cheated out of the all-important closure-knowledge that would have made me feel better about the worst thing to ever happen to me short of my mother dying, as well as the chance to reconcile my feelings for Leo with the way things ended between us. Yes, we broke up. Yes, Leo did the breaking up. But he regretted it. He loved me enough to come back. I was worth coming back for. It might not have made a difference in my life, but it would have made a difference in my heart. I close my eyes, riding a wave of resentment and indignation and more anger still." - Love the One You're With by Emily Giffin

"I know that what I'm doing is wrong, weak, indefensible, but I still stay on course, fueling my indignation with a steady diet of grievances: Andy doesn't understand my feelings. Even worse, he doesn't even try to understand my feelings. He left me last night. He hasn't called today or softened his stance at all. He's the one who drew the line in the sand. He's the one who seems to care more about his family, hometown, job, and everything he wants than me. But perhaps most simply, underwriting everything else, he is not Leo. He's not the one who has, since the day I met him, been able to turn me inside out and upside down like no other-for better or worse." - Love the One You're With by Emily Giffin

"'Me, too,' I say, feeling at war with myself as I avoid his gaze. Part of me desperately wants to make up with Andy and feel close to him again, but another part almost wants to keep things broken so I can justify what I'm doing. Whatever it is that I'm doing." - Love the One You're With by Emily Giffin

"There were things I considered saying in an enclosed note. Thank you . . . I'm sorry . . . I'll always love you. They were all true-and still are-but were better left unsaid, just as I decided never to confess to Andy how close I came to losing everything. Instead, I hold that day deep within myself, as a reminder that love is the sum of our choices, the strength of our commitments, the ties that bind us together." - Love the One You're With by Emily Giffin

"'Okay if you're totally over the guy, and he's totally over you, and you were never that serious to begin with, I see absolutely nothing wrong with an occasional, friendly hello. Or some innocent yard work. Assuming, of course, your current beau-slash-husband is not a complete psycho freak. Then again, if your current guy is a psycho freak, you have much bigger issues than who you should hire to do your lawn.'" - Love the One You're With by Emily Giffin

"With a measure of self-serving irony, I reassure myself that perhaps I needed to kiss Leo to really let go of him-and dismiss the notion that staying in my marriage is any version of settling, or that I'm with Andy by default. After all, isn't settling about having no opinions at all? About taking something because it's better than nothing? I finally had a real choice. And I chose." - Love the One You're With by Emily Giffin

"I realize that for the longest time, I saw Andy as perfect, and our life together as perfect. And in some bizarre way, once Leo came back into my life, this yellow-brick road started to feel like settling. Settling for perfection, for all the things that you're supposed to want. A good family. A beautiful home. Wealth. It was almost as if I discounted my feelings, because surely I couldn't truly be in love with Andy, too, on top of all those check marks in his column. Subconsciously, I think I assumed that any feelings I had for dark, difficult, distant Leo had to be more legitimate. The stuff of sad love songs." - Love the One You're With by Emily Giffin
