More quotes by Emily Giffin

Emily Giffin
We are one of those couples i used to watch, thinking to myself that I'd never be on the inside of something so special. I remember reassuring myself that it probably looked nicer than it actually was, I am happy to be wrong about that.
Emily Giffin
Every couple has two stories - the edited one to be shared from the couch and the unabridged version best left alone.
Emily Giffin
I'm very open in terms of sharing bits about my life, but I think it's very easy to get a distorted sense of who anyone is through social media.
Emily Giffin
Don't you wish we could pick the people we love? Yeah, I say. Or just make the people we love want the same things we want.
Emily Giffin
