When they are about to take a piece of your heart? If one is willing to lose everything the edge of the abyss would never be tall enough. But if instead you are not willing to lose it, the most minimum height would be tall enough. In reality you do not know what you have until you lose it. In life there is always decisions that need to be made. Sometimes they are small, insignificant. Sometimes they are huge, that can change everything in your life forever... happiness or sorrowness.

Heartbreak means overwhelming distress. Love means an intense feeling of deep affection. I ask myself everyday, “ what would my life be like if I hadn't been through the things that I've been through”. How do you love someone when growing up love was dangerous for you. You never know what truly hurts until you sit back and analyze all the things that do hurt. How do you fathom what love is. what truly hurts is the one thing that makes your heart clench tighter. Makes you grunt with pain for a second. My story is about my whole life in one word, “ Heartbreak”.

Humans need to be with other humans. They need the companionship and they need to know that other people care. Most of the time, this companionship that humans seek with each other will evolve into friendship. At other times, the companionships will evolve into love. Differentiating between friendship and love is difficult because there are no clear cut boundaries on either side. What one person might feel as love, the other might distinguish as friendship or vice versa. The differentiation between love and friendship can be so difficult that not even the people involved in the relationship could realize it. The people involved would only believe that their relationship was simply friendship, not realizing that

Lasting a year or a lifetime, friendship is something that we’ve all experienced and cherished throughout our lives. It has an impacted us in a good or bad way, teaching us a lesson for every encounter we come across: which brings a new meaning to the word friendship. I’ve had many good and bad friendships throughout my life, but one experience gave me a bigger outlook on the word “Friendship”.
Two stand in the center, one yearns for the power to not be a burden, the other wishes for the power to lift any hardship, yet both walk together, the strings of many emotions tying them together. As they stand together in me, they stood together outside of me. Mayhaps they, together, might stay here intertwined for a lifetime. Even now, though, a force pushes against my walls like the swelling tide of a raging sea, fully intent on shattering my fortifications, but I shall not let it. I will not let him steal my family.
Bennett Helm describes friendship as “a distinctive kind of concern for your friend, a concern which might reasonably be understood as a kind of love.” I believe friendship is a greater form of an acquaintance. With an acquaintance you will exchange greetings whenever you happen to meet and maybe have a small conversation, but that is where the effort of becoming a friend stops. A quality friendship is where each person cares for the other to succeed, enjoys going out of their way to spend quality time with the other, and deeply care for the other’s health.
Relationships are a part of life and they are so common that people overlook how special they are. They cause smiles, happiness, and love when everything works perfectly. Everything has an end though, and ending relationships with others leads to loss of trust, regret, and sorrow. It takes a huge toll on the body and mind and leaves one drained.

i believe i have a true love, but 'true love' is always hurt, isn't it?" i scratches my head with this thought and began to wonder. what is the answer to this? "this i have to know!" i said to myself. i looked in the mirror and asked "is it a true love when you know you want to live with this special person for the rest of your life? have we reached 'true love' when we are ready to give everything away towards our subject? or maybe when can go as far as to sacrifice ourselves for our love? what about love as an obsession? is that
Relationships take a lot of work. You have to be working at them all the time so that you grow together. When you hit a bump, that’s the time to stop and say “Love is a decision. I made a conscious decision to love this man or this woman, despite his or her shortcomings, and despite my not agreeing with everything he or she says and does.
“Yes, would you like something to drink?” He called the waiter and he ordered a coffee while I asked for a tea. “Well, I know that I might sound like a girl and you might not be okay with what I’m going to tell you.” Harry said. Whoa, is it that bad? “I like your sister, well, more than like.” He confessed. I raised an eyebrow and I felt my blood boiling.
In the beginning it was love. In the middle it was love. At the end, it was love. There are love stories that begin and end the same way. Person meets person. Person loves person. Person loses person. Person finds person again. Person marries person. Genuine love stories are the same with two people…strangers, even, falling for each other and hoping to begin a life together.
This is a false dilemma. There are more alternatives than friends and enemies, like acquaintances and strangers.
