Mary Tyler Moore was a working woman whose story lines were not always about dating and men. They were about work friendships and relationships which is what I feel my adult life has mostly been about.

I like the idea of dating but I'm not dating anyone exclusively particularly right now. It's hard to be in a relationship unless you're ready to go public with it. So it's a lot easier for me to not be in a relationship. I really don't want that part of my life to be tabloid fodder.

I don't know why anyone would want to ask an actor for dating advice. We are not the poster children for healthy relationships.

My mom is going to kill me for talking about sleeping with people. But I don't want to put myself in the position where I'm in a monogamous relationship right now. I'm not dating just one person. 'Sex and the City' changed everything for me because those girls would sleep with so many people.

You are not alone with a guy until you are a proper age. You don't go to certain levels with men until you are married or you have a certain relationship.

Relationships in general make people a bit nervous. It's about trust. Do I trust you enough to go there?

In a relationship you have to open yourself up.

It was just that we had this phenomenal honeymoon relationship that just kept on going.

I don't know any of us who are in relationships that are totally honest - it doesn't exist.

I have stepped off the relationship scene to come to terms with myself. I have spent most of my adult life being 'someone's girlfriend' and now I am happy being single.

You show your vulnerability through relationships and those feelings are your soft spot. You need to have a soft spot.

Maybe the most that you can expect from a relationship that goes bad is to come out of it with a few good songs.

I didn't have a financial need and I wasn't very gifted at relationships. I probably was more like what we think of boys as being: hard to pin down and wary of commitment.

Which is I'm an optimist that two people can be together to work out their conflicts. And that commitment I think might be what love is because they both grow from their relationship.

I've never been Romeo who meets a girl and falls for her immediately. It's been a much slower process for me each time I've gone into a relationship.

Practically all the relationships I know are based on a foundation of lies and mutually accepted delusion.

I can't even find someone for a platonic relationship much less the kind where someone wants to see me naked.

I'm 31 now. I think I'm beginning to understand what life is what romance is and what a relationship means.

People could rationally decide that prolonged relationships take up too much time and effort and that they'd much rather do other kinds of things. But most people are afraid of rejection.

Treasure your relationships not your possessions.

However successful you are there is no substitute for a close relationship. We all need them.

A relationship requires a lot of work and commitment.

It seems essential in relationships and all tasks that we concentrate only on what is most significant and important.

I'm quite sensitive to women. I saw how my sister got treated by boyfriends. I read this thing that said when you are in a relationship with a woman imagine how you would feel if you were her father. That's been my approach for the most part.
