I don't have a girlfriend. But I do know a woman who'd be mad at me for saying that.
You can't stop loving or wanting to love because when its right it's the best thing in the world. When you're in a relationship and its good, even if nothing else in your life is right, you feel like your whole world is complete.
If there hadn't been women we'd still be squatting in a cave eating raw meat, because we made civilization in order to impress our girlfriends.
Nothing is perfect. Life is messy. Relationships are complex. Outcomes are uncertain. People are irrational.
I'm not the girl who always has a boyfriend. I'm the girl who rarely has a boyfriend.
I like the bad-boy types. Generally the guy I'm attracted to is the guy in the club with all the tattoos and nail polish. He's usually the lead singer in a punk band and plays guitar. But my serious boyfriends are relatively clean-cut, nice guys. So it's strange.
There's only two people in your life you should lie to... the police and your girlfriend.
I'm quite sensitive to women. I saw how my sister got treated by boyfriends. I read this thing that said when you are in a relationship with a woman, imagine how you would feel if you were her father. That's been my approach, for the most part.
Nothing defines humans better than their willingness to do irrational things in the pursuit of phenomenally unlikely payoffs. This is the principle behind lotteries, dating, and religion.
It seems essential, in relationships and all tasks, that we concentrate only on what is most significant and important.
However successful you are, there is no substitute for a close relationship. We all need them.
Do not just look at your boyfriend as just a boyfriend. Look at him as a friend, too.
Personally, I don't like a girlfriend to have a husband. If she'll fool her husband, I figure she'll fool me.
You know, the man of my dreams might walk round the corner tomorrow. I'm older and wiser and I think I'd make a great girlfriend. I live in the realm of romantic possibility.
People could rationally decide that prolonged relationships take up too much time and effort and that they'd much rather do other kinds of things. But most people are afraid of rejection.
You know when I feel inwardly beautiful? When I am with my girlfriends and we are having a 'goddess circle'.
I used to be a real prince charming if I went on a date with a girl. But then I'd get to where I was likely to have a stroke from the stress of keeping up my act. I've since learned the key to a good date is to pay attention on her.
If you can lie, you can act, and if you can lie to crazy girlfriends, you can act under pressure.
If you don't have a valentine, hang out with your girlfriends, don't go looking for someone. When it's right, they'll come to you.
I don't know the first real thing about the dating game. I don't know how to talk to a specific person and connect. I just think you have to go to person by person and do the best you can with people in general.
I'm 31 now. I think I'm beginning to understand what life is, what romance is, and what a relationship means.
Watching your daughter being collected by her date feels like handing over a million dollar Stradivarius to a gorilla.
I can't even find someone for a platonic relationship, much less the kind where someone wants to see me naked.
If you're a sports fan you realize that when you meet somebody, like a girlfriend, they kind of have to root for your team. They don't have a choice.
I suppose I was a little bit of what would be called today a nerd. I didn't have girlfriends, and really I wasn't a very social boy.
I don't understand the whole dating thing. I know right off the bat if I'm interested in someone, and I don't want them to waste their money on me and take me out to eat if I know I'm not interested in that person.
Everything I buy is vintage and smells funny. Maybe that's why I don't have a boyfriend.
Practically all the relationships I know are based on a foundation of lies and mutually accepted delusion.
I've never been Romeo who meets a girl and falls for her immediately. It's been a much slower process for me each time I've gone into a relationship.
I was dating this guy and we would spend all day text messaging each other. And he thought that he could tell that he liked me more because he actually spelt the word 'YOU' and I just put the letter 'U'.
Which is, I'm an optimist that two people can be together to work out their conflicts. And that commitment, I think, might be what love is, because they both grow from their relationship.
I didn't have a financial need, and I wasn't very gifted at relationships. I probably was more like what we think of boys as being: hard to pin down and wary of commitment.
My boyfriend calls me 'princess', but I think of myself more along the lines of 'monkey' and 'retard'.
