I was a late starter on the romantic front. I didn't start dating until I was in my 30s.

I feel like you don't know if someone's equipped for a romantic relationship until they're out of their twenties.

I never thought I was gonna live to 30.

At 30 I thought my life was over. I thought I'd have made something of myself by then, that life would somehow have made the necessary arrangements - but actually I had nothing.

I'm very much a romantic. I'm highly attuned to an older sensibility, which I believe is alive and well. We're not that far ahead of the Romantic Age in society.

I was only 24 then, but 18 of those 24 years had been dedicated to wanting to get to that moment.

I've always considered myself a fairly romantic person. I believe in love and falling in love at a young age.

When I was 15, I never thought I'd live to see 21. And then I became 21, and I'm like, 'I'll never live to see 30.'

Age is a chronological number. That's all. There is plenty of time for my life afterwards. I'm still a young woman.

Thirty was a big deal for me. It was the age where I reevaluated everything - how I approached life and how I thought about myself. When I look at my 20s, or when I look at any period in my life, I think about how much time I've wasted trying to find the right man.
