Nicholas Sparks Quotes
He was thirty-one now, not too old, but old enough to be lonely. He hadn't dated since he'd been back here, hadn't met anyone who remotely interested him. It was his own fault, he knew.

And sometimes in the moments right before sleep came, he wondered if he was destined to be alone forever.
