More quotes by Emily Giffin
you'd do anything to get a soul mate back, right?… I mean, that's the nature of soul mates.
Emily Giffin
Life is about the gray areas. Things are seldom black and white, even when we wish they were and think they should be, and I like exploring this nuanced terrain.
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.

The world is not that black and white, Rachel. There are no moral absolutes. It is complex.
Emily Giffin
I still think I love him more. It's one of those things you never know for certain because there's no way to enter all the relationship data in a computer and have it spit out a definitive answer. You can't quantify love, and if you try, you wind up focusing on misleading factors.

Emily Giffin
You can only control your own actions. Not other people’s reactions.
Emily Giffin

Emily Giffin
In days that follow, I discover that anger is easier to handle than grief.
Emily Giffin
Although I'm sure there are plenty of tall, gorgeous, life-of-the-party guys who are also true to their wives, I happen to believe that a disproportionate number of them are cheaters.
Emily Giffin
As everyone applauds and sips champagne, I smile back at Rachel, thinking she got it just right. Love and friendship. They are what makes us who we are and what can change us, if we let them.
Emily Giffin
i want to make it official, i want to make it forever
Emily Giffin
Love is seldom—almost never—an even proposition. Someone always loves more.
Emily Giffin
I think of how life takes unexpected twists and turns, sometimes through sheer happenstance, sometimes through calculated decisions. In the end, it can all be called fate, but to me, it is more a matter of faith.
Emily Giffin
Writing a teen character is something I wanted to try again for a long time!
Emily Giffin
i wish i could freeze this moment, somehow delay my final decision, and just hang here in the balance between two places, two worlds, two loves.
Emily Giffin
