Once a guy became too time-consuming, she broke things off.
It might be the biggest mistake of her life, but being here with him felt right.
Something about him changed her, made her feel things she wasn't used to feeling.
Something about him changed her, made her feel things she wasn't used to feeling.
Sweet is made sweeter after we eat something bitter.
The sweetest noise on earth, a woman's tongue; A string which hath no discord.
Having this, and losing it, made it even sweeter the second time around.
—R.K. Lilley in Lovely Trigger
Those were the days when dreams were sweet and life was sweeter still.
—Lisa Schroeder in Chasing Brooklyn
