Being hurt by someone you love Quote by Anonymous

“Sometimes you convince yourself that youre already over someone. You tell yourself that there is no more love left in your heart. The thing is often times, the more you try to convince yourself, the more you realize how much you still and always will, love the person youre trying to forget.” quote by Anonymous
