Have you ever been in love? Horrible, isn't it? It makes you so vulnerable. It opens your chest and opens your heart and it means that someone can get inside you and mess you up. You build up all these defenses. You build up this whole armour, for years, so no one can hurt you, then one stupid person, no different from any other stupid person, wanders into your stupid life.... You give them a piece of you. They don't ask for it. They do something dumb one day, like kiss you or smile at you, and then your life isn't your own anymore. Love takes hostages. It gets inside you. It eats you out and leaves you crying in the darkness, so a simple phrase like 'maybe we should just be friends' turns into a glass splinter working its way into your heart. It hurts. Not just in the mind. It's a soul hurt, a body hurt, a real gets-inside-you-and-rips-you-apart pain. I hate love
-Neil Gaiman
Had never heard this quote until recently. Truth is it felt sooooo true, and yes i think it is, but i also think its situation dependent. Not sure what to make of it really and thats just because it will eventually become false. It kinda plays between true and false

True words dear sister...and to think I can relate to it???
No thots or word left to decribe the resultant effects of loving. Really, we often miss love for lust. Love is a wonderful experience: u know it when u begin to experience it. It more less never really appears to be at irst site. I'm yet to testify to this really but it's my ernest desire. TRUE LOVE.
I believe that if there is no Love then there wouln't be a Heartbreak, so the two are handy.
you must experience on to get a better understanding of the latter.
Come to think of it have you ever seen someone who never loved again after a heartbreak? not necessarily a person but he/she would love something.
to me love isnt about relationships only i.e lover concept, it is an everyday stuff and should start from our "homes";from parents to siblings to grandparents then to the uncommon relative or friends.
if we learn to love as God commanded then i don't think there would be vacuums open for "heartbreaks".
above all God is Love and He is our reserves when we need the srength ok
