Subject: do you ever stop loving someone?

I’ve thought about this all week, and I don’t think that you ever stop loving the person.

You can catalogue their flaws, but it won’t matter.

If you came home from work one night & their car was flipped over in front of your building, you’d still run to the open window & try to pull them out, weeping the whole time.

Breakups are messed up.

Why don’t we realize how rare & precious this whole “love” thing is at the moment it’s happening?

Why does it take bullshit “hindsight” for us to figure it out?

Sigh.
Deep thoughts.
