We&rsquo;ve gathered some of the deepest and some of the most worthy quotes that will touch your heart.<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&ldquo;Love doesn&rsquo;t self-destruct. We choke it with unkind words. We starve it with empty promises. We poison it with toxic blame. We break it by trying to bend it to our will. No, love doesn&rsquo;t die on its own. We kill it. Breathe, by bitter breath. Wise are those who realize that they hold the fate of their love in their hands, and blessed are those who keep it alive.&rdquo;<\/span><\/i> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&ndash;Unknown<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Love never goes away but it fades. Just like a plant we need to water and nurture it with actions and words for it to flourish. Without these things, love will wither and if you start feeding it with poisonous words, hurtful actions, and neglect &mdash; will you even be surprised if it fades?<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&ldquo;You can hurt her, but it will be temporary.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">She knows how to love,<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">but she also knows how to love herself.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And if you cross that line where she has to choose, understand you will lose.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&ndash; JmStorm<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">No matter how much you love someone, no matter <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.marriage.com\/advice\/relationship\/small-sacrifices-for-a-happy-lasting-relationship\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">how much you are willing to sacrifice<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> &mdash; there&rsquo;s always a limit. Sooner or later, one is to wake up in the reality that a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.marriage.com\/advice\/relationship\/identify-you-are-in-a-one-sided-relationship\/\">one-sided love<\/a> will never be enough.<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&ldquo;Never lose yourself while trying to hold on to someone who doesn&rsquo;t care about losing you.&rdquo;<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> &ndash; Unknown<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sometimes, we love so much that we begin to lose ourselves in the process and it seems that even if we give our all &ndash; it&rsquo;s never truly enough. Then one day we just realize that we are left with nothing but a broken heart.<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&ldquo;Divorce isn&rsquo;t such a tragedy. A tragedy is staying in an unhappy marriage.&rdquo;<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> &ndash; Jennifer Weiner<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We often fear divorce as the one who will give us a broken family but we fail to see that being together and <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.marriage.com\/advice\/counseling\/should-we-stay-married-for-the-sake-of-our-child\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">staying in an unhappy marriage just for the kids<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is as empty as an absent parent. What&rsquo;s more, is that you may be together but the emptiness that you feel is greater than of a broken family.<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&ldquo;The truth is; we&rsquo;re better off apart. It just kills me to admit it.&rdquo; <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&mdash; Unknown<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Admitting the truth hurts and sometimes unbearable.

Or are you just addicted to the pain and the longing for that person who you used to love? Pain changes us and has this weird way of making us believe that we are still in love.<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&ldquo;Have you ever just randomly started crying because you&rsquo;ve been holding in all of these emotions and pretending to be happy for way too long?&rdquo;<\/span><\/i> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&ndash;<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Unknown<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.marriage.com\/advice\/love\/giving-up-on-love\/\">Do you feel like giving up<\/a>? Have you ever felt so alone even when you&rsquo;re married? How is it that a relationship so ideal has turned into an empty feeling and loneliness? How long will you let this happen before you realize that you deserve so much more?<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&ldquo;Between what is said and not meant, and what is meant and not said, most of the love is lost. <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&ndash; Khalil Gibran<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When sweet words mean nothing and those actions without words can hurt you.

We give whatever we can and endure everything just for the sake of our marriage. If needed, we can be more than willing to sacrifice as long as we see that our spouse or partner is happy. Sadly, some people take advantage of this and use love as an excuse to use and manipulate. How much can you endure for the sake of love?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Being a hopeless romantic is very much different from being a martyr or even an emotional masochist. A hopeless romantic feels deep love and can turn a simple tune into music, words into poems, and a simple gesture as an act of love. While someone who endures pain and being miserable despite the fact that they know that the marriage is no longer working isn&rsquo;t a sign of being romantic &ndash; it&rsquo;s a sign of refusing to face the truth.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Unhappy marriage quotes <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">can help us when we are feeling down or a way to put into words what our hearts feel but we&rsquo;re not really addressing the issue here.
