Quote(s)

1.    I’m sure in the moment, he thinks it’s worth it. I can’t imagine what he’s feeling and I’m sure that the anger that’s now raging in him isn’t letting him think clearly or coherently. All he wants to do is act on it, but if he does that, he’s going to ruin his own life.

I can’t tell you what to do … We both know that. But if you’ll give yourself just a minute to think it all through, you’ll see that going after him right this second isn’t the best move. For anyone.

2.    She’s dumb enough to tell me you’d discovered our… relationship.

And then I realized I was… missing something…

I mean, using your own body and have sex with his father just to make your ex jealous? That’s pretty stupid! Just because Senior flirted doesn’t mean you have to act on it. ARGH!
