I saw this quote & thought I'd ask if some of you agree with it.



At some point you have to realize that some people can stay in your heart but not your life. If this is true then how you can be with someone else if there is that one person who has your heart?

So far no. Not for past lovers.

Unless you include deceased family members and friends. Then I would say yes.

My ex-H will always occupy a small part of my heart. He was the first man I truly fell in love with ... and for a while, I loved him, too. But because of his addictions and genuine love being an action, not a feeling, I made the decision to stop loving him. He was toxic to me. To my life.

But there were a few quiet, golden years we shared together that still resonate in my memory. The person he was then, before everything got so crazy and cruel, will always be a part of my life and my heart. So in short, yes. I believe that someone can remain in your heart.

If your heart is big enough, there's room for a lot more than one.

Of course, think of all the people who have a parent afflicted with Alzheimers. They are in your heart but because of their affliction, many times they are no longer in your life.

Absolutely! My view with this is different, though. I hold a lot of people dear to me, close in my heart. This is why I feel they're doing very well for themselves.

One in particular I'm holding closer because I believe she needs it. I believe she needs people to believe in her because of how her life is now. I won't be able to tell her this, though, as she'll simply shut me out and tell me to 'Knock it off', but it's what I believe in.

Yes, there are people from my past that I love dearly, but who might of messed up. I have moved on but they are always loved by me. It doesn't mean I can't acquire new loves who I will love just as much or more.

Default Definition of Love

Ill give you my definition of love for another

Love to me is being able to give my heart to the other, to hear their voice and believe they love me. To have someone who I can share my life with, hold them, enjoy doing things with and be there for each other when times are challenging

Its not complete but will do. Anything else might be love of an idea, or an image or a hope......
