“Having a partner who doesn’t always say yes to you, who contradicts you in a good way, and who gives you criticism to improve yourself is always better than somebody who is a yes-woman who just agrees with you for the sake of agreeing.” -Cosmopolitan

“A woman’s relationship with her father definitely affects how she is in relationships.” People Magazine
Penn Badgley
“I love being married [to musician Domino Kirke]- I’m so thankful to not be concerned with trying to intrigue and charm people. Our culture is enmeshed in trying to find a partner. And I think it has a lot less to do with finding the other person than with finding contentment in yourself.” Cosmopolitan Magazine
Jennifer Lopez
“Here’s the thing with relationships that nobody tells you: You’re not going to find one person where everything is always going to be perfect – that’s bull. You have to agree to disagree. You have to work at a relationship, and you have to agree to disagree. You have to find someone who is willing to work out the kinks with you and with them. Communication is everything; it’s the only thing. If your communication game is strong, you can get through the tough stuff. But if it’s not, the littlest thing can bring the relationship down.” Jennifer Lopez Redbook Magazine
Ariana Grande
“The biggest lesson I’ve learned about dating is you need to be with someone who makes you feel like a better version of the best version you are, and you need to be able to be yourself in front of whomever you’re with.”Ariana Grande Glamour Magazine
Miranda Cosgrove
“What makes a breakup easier is knowing that you will be better off and eventually your life will be easier because you don’t have to stress about the relationship anymore. I think people are in really unhealthy relationships, and you need to just step away. I’m not into drama.”Miranda Cosgrove Seventeen Magazine
Austin Butler
“Don’t worry so much about what the other person is thinking [about you].”Austin Butler Glamour Magazine
Nicole Kidman
“Real love happens not when everything is going well but when things are going badly. It’s when human beings come together, if they’re going to, in a far deeper way. You’re then having to work together, and the ‘together’ is what it’s about. Keith and I talk about that, because that ultimately is the definition of marriage and union and commitment. “ Nicole Kidman People Magazine
Faith Hill
“We’re both human beings. It’s not all peachy and rosy. We don’t work to be in love, but sometimes we don’t get along. I think you’ve got to really like the person you are with, and he has to be the one you want to hang out with more than anybody else.” Faith Hill People Magazine
Patrick Schwarzenegger
“I’ve had relationships that didn’t work out, but I try to look forward. Stuff happens, but ultimately, it’ll make me a better man or husband. There will always be hiccups, but it’s about how you bounce back.” Patrick Schwarzenegger People Magazine
