WHEN SOMEONE TELLS YOU THEY LOVE YOU, BE SURE THAT YOU LOVE THEM AS WELL BEFORE TELLING THEM YOU LOVE THEM BACK. ONE OF THE WORST THINS YOU CAN DO TO ANOTHER HUMAN BEING IS GIVE THEM THE ILLUSION THAT THEY'VE FOUND THE PERSON OF THEIR DREAMS ONLY TO TAKE IT AWAY FROM THEM WHEN THEY LEAST EXPECT IT. RECOVERING FROM A BROKEN HEART IS ONE OF THE HARDEST THINGS; A PERSON CAN GO THROUGH, AND SOME NEVER RECOVER. ITS BEST TO MAKE SURE YOU LOVE THEM AS MUCH AS THEY LOVE YOU BEFORE YOU MAKE A VERBAL COMMITMENT TO THEM, AND THAT IS EXACTLY WHAT SAYING I LOVE YOU IS, ITS A VERBAL COMMITMENT. TELLING SOMEONE YOU DON'T LOVE THEM IS FAR LESS DAMAGING THEN TELLING SOMEONE YOU LOVE THEM BUT NOT REALLY MEANING IT.
