I've always wondered how the heart got its shape? The human heart doesnt look anything like a love heart. If you turn a heart upside down, I always thought it looked like some weird shaped butt cheeks. But other then that, nothing els really resembles the heart. So how did the heart get its shape? Who came up with a shape that looks like butt cheeks as symble of love?

I think that one heart really has the shape of a half draw heart and if the two souls meet they form the heart you are drawing.
