Broken Hearts

I'm tired of seeing and hearing people say "I got my heart broken today" In my opinion, hearts can only break once, and only once. Your partner leaves you and you say "He/She broke my heart". No. They did not. They only hurt you. A true broken heart cannot be mended. The only way someones heart can break is if the one that they are in love with dies and they are left (truly) brokenhearted in which their own heart may give out. But that's just my opinion.

That is not true at all. Why do you think that? People can have their heard broken in many, many different ways. Betrayal, loss, family, friends, loved ones. You can have your heart broken from losing something valuable like your house or your job or your great-grandmother's heirloom wedding ring. Your parents, your children, siblings, dear friends can betray you. You can fall in love with more than one person and they have plenty of power to break your heart in many different ways. And broken hearts CAN mend, they do all the time. You will never be the same, but your heart can mend and you can move on with your life.

a broken heart is when your soul is hurt. this is what represents me, the inner me and within that soul is my heart.

this is true some people can acually die from a broken heart.it is really sad that many of us do not even know what true love really is this is why we think we can get our hearts brok so easy.a parent loosing a child or seeing a child haveing a illness can be enough to break ones heart.

Heart can break many times. Take me for example, when I lost my bag which contains a lot of cash and cellphones a week ago, I felt heartbroken and had no mood for anything as if the world were collapsed. When my bf quarreled with me, and said something that hurt me terribly, I felt heartbroken. But heartbroken can disappear later on, like when we've earned enough money to complement the loss, like my bf apologized to me and loved me even more than before, then I feel much happier and my heart is healed, as perfect as before. Life is never smooth, and sad things are happening nor and then. Today you might be heartbroken at the loss of big fortunes or loved ones, while tomorrow you might get a bigger possession and get back your loved ones, so don't think that bad things once happen that break your heart will have an ever-lasting harmful effect on you that prevents you from enjoying the wonderment of life. You will overcome any difficulties and your heart will experience love and happiness again. Believe that when the thick clouds back the sun, the sun will shine again. waazula.com

a heartbreak is different for everybody. people get over heartbreaks just enough to get heartbroken again. you can't narrow a heartbreak down to just someone dying. anytime anyone put their feelings into someone. they opening themselves up for a heartbreak because anything anyone of them do will affect the other

Hi Nicapol! I understand your opinion about the discussion and I respect that. It is of course disputable because when we say "broken heart" or "heart broken", it also means "pain" or "hurt" or "hard feelings". These terms are similar or synonymous to "broken heart" or "heart broken". When we feel hurt or pain inside, our heart is as if broken and we need to mend it. Hence, broken heart cannot be felt once and not by losing someone alone. We feel broken heart even when our loved one would be away from us temporarily, say when you separate or works somewhere else. We likewise feel heart broken when the person we love no longer loves us and find someone new. We feel pain even when we quarrel with our partner or when he/she gets mad to us. Simply, hurt, pain, broken heart are all matters of the heart which feels that certain ache.

yeah you're right but for some people that get first time in relationship they think that the girl/boy is the only one person that they want to keep forever but the fact isn't like that so you must understand them for the first
