“Here's something else, something important: Love is not transactional. It is not a bank account, you don't always get what you put in. Sometimes you put in so much and get very little return on your investment, at least that you can see right away.” LittlesImportantSometimesLove IsReturnAccountsInvestmentBank Accounts Author:Jenny Han
