My alone feels so good, I’ll only have you if you’re sweeter than my solitude.

Too many women throw themselves into romance because they’re afraid of being single, then start making compromises and losing their identity. I won’t do that

Being single used to mean that nobody wanted you. Now it means you’re pretty sexy and you’re taking your time deciding how you want your life to be and who you want to spend it with.

This is a good sign, having a broken heart. It means we have tried for something.

History has shown that incumbents tend to fight trends that challenge established ways and, in the process, lose focus on what matters most: customers.
