You people have it all wrong.
Love doesn’t hurt. Rejection hurts, loneliness hurts, losing someone hurts. But love, real love, is the only thing on this earth that can heal the scars that everything else has left behind. So don’t let people tell you “Don’t fall in love, you’ll only get hurt” because, frankly, it’s a lie. You’ll know love when you feel it, and it will be the furthest thing away from being hurt.
