Have you ever been in love?

(This is asked late one night and it might seem frivolous with the current concerns hovering over the populace of Hadriel. Yet Sansa believes love is important no matter how long someone lives - or where they are imprisoned. Besides, she had a taste of love recently and it's a frightening - and exhilarating - change of scenery for her.)

Can it last?

You can't be worse at it than I am. (Comforting?)

why do you think you're bad at it?

I was betrothed to a mad king who tormented me; then I was married to his uncle who was much kinder by far, though I felt no love for him. After that, I was married to a monster who took advantage of me nightly.

holy shit
none of that means you're bad at love
it just means everyone you've been trapped with has been a monster

It doesn't?

When does it stop being their fault? I've yet to notice that line.
