... But the man l loved fell out of love with me. That broke my heart. And whenever the chance to be loved came along again, l ran away from it. l stopped trusting people. No offense, but that seems like sort of a dumb thing to do. l was afraid of getting my heart broken again. You see, sometimes you can trust a person, and then, when things are down, they forget about you.

— l stopped trusting people.
— No offense, but that seems like sort of a dumb thing to do.
— l was afraid of getting my heart broken again. You see, sometimes you can trust a person, and then, when things are down, they forget about you.
— Maybe they're just too busy. Maybe they don't forget about you, but they forget to remember you.
— l'm just afraid if l do trust someone, l'll get my heart broken again.
— l understand that. l used to have this really nice pair of rollerblades. l was afraid if l wore them, l'd wreck them. So l kept them in a box. Do you know what happened? l outgrew them. l never wore them once outside. l just wore them in my room a couple times. lf you aren't going to use your heart, then what's the difference if it gets broken? lf 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. Your heart might still be broken, but it isn't gone.
