Love with your mind
I personally believe that you love with you mind and not your heart. The reason as to why I say this is because you heart has nothing to do with how you love. The job of the heart is to circulate blood through out the various systems in your body. Your mind’s job however it to control how you think and how you perceive things. If something is attractive to you, then you mind will indicate that for you, not your heart.
If your heart thought for you then the world would be dangerous, and nobody would know what in the hell was going on the world would be over populated with peoples and disaster. Some people have said well it is your heart that tells you that you must love one another. I said umm no that is a fucked up concept that somebody has spoon fed you for the past 20 or 75 years. That concept is so overrated and incorrect.
Take for instance if I gave you plate full of spaghetti would you eat it???? Well yeah you would because it’s food and food is appealing to you because you mind has told you that food is good for you because it keeps you from starvation and it’s pleasing to the eye. However if I gave you plate of African Jumping Spiders would you eat it????? HELL NO!! Why? Because they are spiders and, spiders are gross and you know that they can make you sick and taste disgusting. Also they are not pleasing to the eye. Its all a mind thing when you really look at it.
So in conclusion if your Girlfriend breaks up with you and your sad. Pull yourself out of that mindset and move on to the best of you ability. It makes you so much mentally stronger, and you feel unstoppable once you’ve gotten through it. However nobody said it was going to be easy…..sorry.

I enjoyed reading this post. It made me stop and think for a second about love. You did make a good point about the heart circulating blood. I think love is a though issue because sometimes a person may find his or herself in love, but its not a type of more-than-a-friend type of relationship, rather its just for the love of being around that person. I can't really say much about love to a certain extent.
