“Really? I’ll tell you one thing though. You did not have me the moment that we met because I’m not even sure I like the fact that your staff talked about you behind your back at the desert table. And excuse me but truth be told I didn’t like anything that you ordered for me on our first date except the calamari. And ok fine, yes, it was nice to not have to think for a change. But who wants someone that doesn’t think? Look! And sometimes you laugh when I cry, and you say ‘ha’ when I make perfect sense. And never ever in my life have I burnt a chocolate soufflé until now, and that in and of itself… oh my god. Should have told me I don’t feel like myself around you. And I would have decided that. A long time ago if it weren’t for my mother.” – because I said so

“Even before I met you I had an instinct about you. Once I saw you were a woman with profound static cling I wanted to be that force around you.” – because I said so

“I love that when I breathe you in you smell like cake batter. And I love that you have this insane way of talking in circles that makes perfect sense.” – because I said so
