Elizabeth is afraid of falling in love again- 'I have a history of making decisions very quickly

about men. I have always fallen in love fast and without measuring risks. I have a tendency not
only to see the best in everyone, but to assume that everyone is emotionally capable of
reaching his highest potential. I have fallen in love more times than I care to count with the
highest potential of a man, rather than with the man himself, and I have hung on to the
relationship for a long time (sometimes far too long) waiting for the man to ascend to his own
greatness. Many times in romance I have been a victim of my own optimism.
This quote succinctly summaries the story her past relationships, showing how she
inadvertently set herself up for such heartbreak by falling in love with the potential of a man
and a relationship with him, instead of looking at what she has in her state. The optimistic
thought of hers and the excitement to show him this whole other side of life with so much love
and caretaking to the whole other level of love are outlooks that she thought are to be blamed.
