“Have you ever been
in love? Horrible isn't it? It makes you so vulnerable. It opens
your chest and it opens up your heart and it means that someone can
get inside you and mess you up. You build up all these defenses,
you build up a whole suit of armor, so that nothing 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
didn't ask for it. They did 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 simple a phrase like 'maybe we should be
just friends' turns into a glass splinter working its way into your
heart. It hurts. Not just in the imagination. Not just in the mind.
It's a soul-hurt, a real gets-inside-you-and-rips-you-apart pain. I
hate falling in love sometimes.” ~Neil
Gaiman.
i just changed the last sentence. it said "i hate love",
and i don't:)
