Discussion on Love and Heartbreak

We were too young to understand

I have a family.

Did you have any kids?

No.

Oh, I wanted them,

but the man I loved fell out of love with me.

That broke my heart,

and whenever the chance to be loved came along again,

I ran away from it.

No offense, but that seems like sort of a dumb thing

to do.

I'm just afraid if I do trust someone, I'll get my heart broken again.

I understand that. I used to have this really nice pair of

rollerblades, and I was

afraid if I wore them, I'd wreck them, so I kept them in a box.

And do you know what happened?

No.

I outgrew them. I never wore them once outside.

I just wore them in my room a couple times.

A person's heart and a person's feelings are very different than skates.

Well, they're kind of the same thing.

If you aren't gonna use your heart, then what's the difference

if it gets broken?

If you just keep it to yourself, maybe it'll be like my rollerblades.

When you do decide to try it, it won't be any good.

You should take a chance.

Got nothing to lose.
