I found this quote and I thought it applied to most of our situations. What do you think?

"She who loves roses must be patient & not cry out when she is pierced by thorns."

Hey dreamer,

I would have to say that's pretty appropriate...

Good quote jdreamer. Here is one I found that I think applies to all of situations, espcially right now with lots of us on the board.

"All commend patience, but none can endure to suffer." - Thomas Fuller

Here's one my mom favors....

"It's not the thorns in life that hurt...it's the lack of roses."

You could think that it is applicable to an affair, but what is MORE applicable is: "She who loves to drown her pain in whiskey must learn to love a hangover."
