Can anyone tell me the definition of heartbreak?
No? No? No? I thought so. So tell me this, why does everyone act like they know everything about love and heartbreaks when they have never experienced it themselves? Well, I guess it's human nature, wanting to know something so badly you make up a definition for it. Now I probably sound like a love expert, but I've never been in love, hence I've never experienced heartbreak.
Love... Love doesn't exist. Love is a choice, not a feeling. Love is an arrangement that puts two people together who might work well together, but who might also be completely different. That's the way it was for my parents. Their definition of love was to be married to each other but to have open relations with everyone that walked on our street. Some childhood.
Everyone's definition of love is different. Mine is it doesn't exist. Cynical? I know.
That is... until I met River Caprino.

The Unconventional
Love. Such an overused and underestimated word that no one really knows. I don't really believe in love. Can you really love someone so much that it hurts. Can you love someone to the point that you can't think of anyone else. At least I didn't believe it. I didn't know it until I experienced it. I had been missing out. To love someone so hard that your ribs ache having to cage in such a heart beat. You literally can't think of anything or anyone else. You're even smiling long after he leaves. Everything you do or see or hear reminds you of him. Like I say I didn't believe it. I know now that it exists but I also know that it comes to a painful end. Isn't that the saying all good things come to an end. This is the love story of Nina and Chaz. "To not letting the world and it's people keep us from living!" "And to jumping off the bridge."Complete
Sitting On A White Bench
What is this? Actually I can't still define it accurately, I guess it's a diary, a story, a moral... probably all of them together. Life is a learning process which never stops and this is a piece of mine I'd like to share. Falling in love it's a beautiful motion and awesome when you really find that person, but it doesn't feel so pleasant when you find it thousands of miles away. Here you will see how it all started, how I managed this situation and how I tried to solve this huge trouble in which I got enrolled. The plot, feelings, time, messages... besides names, nothing is invented even the slightest detail is worked thoroughly because I just depict in words what I lived the way I lived it so you can get into my skin. Take your own conclutions about it.Complete
Two Unfound Love
I believe that each of us deserves a chance at love. And I know it sounds silly that there's someone out there for everyone but I believe in love. Now I know some say there's no such thing as true love, that it all ends in heartbreak and pain, but I think that's the beauty of it. To have something so perfect for such a short while, and then for it to disappear into nothing. It's an endless loop, never-ending, always on the move. You never know where it will take you. That's the thing about love, it's so beautiful and mysterious and magical. I believe we all deserve a chance at love because we deserve something magical. And for me, my magic started at a simple Ice Rink one cold night. Because your love is so whole, my missing pieces appear. Because your touch carries such passion, what was scarred becomes soft once more. Because you are steady and patient, my open wounds have time to seal and vanish. Perhaps that is why they say love is such magic, this gift from the universe, this sweet addition to the man I was born to find. For with my twin soul, the only other born in the same flame as I, we are able to bathe one other in warmth and light as easily as we breather, immune and oblivious to darkness. This story has mature parts. The mature parts have an asterisk.Complete

There are so many expectations that made us so much dissapointed ; when we're hoping that someone that we really love will like and love us back one day. Alongside the insane decision someone could take is to believe that there's hope and Miracle that the one we chose to love will acknowledge and choose us the way we do at last.

Thus, the heart breaking part is when we realized that the one we're waiting to open our heart already found the right door that fits his /her keys while we are on the other side still stuck on the phase of illusion.Complete
Playing A Dangerous Game
"That's not something you mess around with." I say to her and she just rolled her eyes. "It's not like he's going to fall for it anyway." She looked at her baby pink nails. "Then why do you-" "Because," She snapped looking away from her nails to me. "He needs to know how it feels to fall in love and then have your heart ripped out of your chest and just feel like you're dying inside." She clenched her fingers into a fist. "Plus you don't believe in love anyway so it should be a piece of cake to keep your end unattached." "Yeah whatever." Monica Roth wasn't exactly the new girl but she wasn't exactly popular either. Her best friend Destiny Hamilton was a cheerleader but wasn't exactly in on the it crowd. They both seemed to keep to each other until one day the head cheerleader Madison Valentine comes up to Monica asking her a favor. A favor to play a game with the school's newest hottie. Derek Reid. Derek used to believe in love, it's what he lived and breathe for. Until he watched his mother become a slut because of it. The one thing he thought was so beautiful and the cure all to mans problems no longer exist. He became cold and heartless to anyone who didn't deem themselves worthy in his eyes. He played games with girls hearts, cause them to fall in love and literally break their hearts when he doesn't return the affection. He's just that type of guy. What makes Monica stand out from anyone else was the fact she's never been in love. She didn't believe in it, her parents never fell in love. She lives with her mom during the week and her father every now and then. It just something she's never witnessed so she didn't believe in it, to her it was just a myth. So when she gets asked to play the game of love with Derek she literally can't say no.Complete
