Reseña en citas: Mine, Regretting You

 MINE

CLIO EVANS

“She was a crimson rose with thorns that would cut me and bleed me. But I yearned for that pain. For the type of love that would strangle me. That would set me free.”

“-I still love her. Why do I still love her? -I still love him. I fucking hate him. But I still love him. I think we love what we wanted them to be. We love ghosts.” -I’m tired of loving ghosts. -Me too.”

“Enthusiastic consent is sexy.”

“Getting competitive about cock sucking was something I never could have guessed would turn me on, but here I was.”

“She was the melody of my heart. And I’d have the chance to sing that song forever.”

“-My music is yours. -And my heart is yours. -I’ll take good care of it. -I know you will.”

“-I’m going to remind every part of your body who you love. -Every part of me already knows. -And yet I feel you’ve forgotten.”

“-I’m not proposing at this very second. You deserve something way better than an orgasm denial proposal… -I don’t know, that would be very us, wouldn’t it be? What about a wax play proposal? Or maybe the ring is around your cock and I have to crawl to you? -Don’t give me any ideas. -It doesn’t need to be the perfect proposal, if that’s something you want. The idea of being called 'wife' by someone was something I didn’t want for a while, but… I love the idea of you saying it to me. -My wife. You could call me your husband. -I could. -I like that idea too.”

 

REGRETTING YOU

COLLEEN HOOVER

“I think it’s time I figure out who I was meant to become before I started living my life for everyone else.”

“-Your mother hates me. -That makes two of us. -You both hate me? -No. My mother hates both of us.”

“-I hate it when you’re right. -You must really hate me, then. -Not even a little bit.”

“-I do love you. -I know you do. That’s why we’re naked.”

“Attraction isn’t something that only happens once, with one person. It’s part of what drives humans. Our attraction to each other, to art, to food, to entertainment. Attraction is fun. So when you decide to commit to someone, you aren’t saying, 'I promise I’ll never be attracted to anyone else'. You’re saying, 'I promise to commit to you, despite my potential attraction to other people'. Relationships are hard for that very reason. Your body and your heart don’t stop finding the beauty and the attraction in other people simple because you’ve made a commitment to one person. If you ever find yourself in a situation where you’re drawn to someone else, it’s up to you to remove yourself from that situation before it becomes too hard to fight.”

“-My God. We have been so mean to each other. -I didn’t think we had it in us. -You grounded me from reading books. -You called me predictable. -Well, you proved me wrong.”

“[…] that’s when I fell in love with you as a complete person. It was no longer just pieces of you I loved. I loved you as a whole. […] you’re the first and only person in this world I’ve ever loved without some reasoning or justification behind it. I just love you because I can’t help it, and it feels good to love you. […] I’m confident that I’ll never spend a single second of my life regretting you.”

“-Your grandson is a romantic. -No, my grandson is a nitwit. Took him three years to finally ask you out. -Patience is a virtue.”
