How does this work....

So everyone says "Don't fall in love too fast. Protect your heart. We don't want to see you get hurt like you have been in the past."

That is a nice thought, but how do you do that? You can be careful in who you date and who you get close to. You can try not to give too much of yourself too quickly. But when you find someone that you absolutely adore, someone that you can tell is a kindred spirit. When you look in their eyes you know that through and through they are a good person.

It's true I haven't been lucky in love in the past 33 years. But how can you find love if you don't take a chance?
