"It's Likely You're Going to Get Your Heart Broken"

Share Your Story: My First Love

From Living life alone

Who Was It With?

I was in love with a boy named Yared. He didn't feel the same.

When Did You Realize It was Love?

When I kept thinking of him 24/7 and trying to look good in front of him.

What Did It Feel Like?

It felt nice that I cared about someone like that. It feels like no one can ever hurt you again that you can work things out.

What Happened Next?

It was on Sports day when I told my close friend "this is the day am going to tell him."

He didn't say, or talk to me for a a few days. He only talked to me about homework.

Later after the summer holidays I moved up in class, and we hardly see each other so we might as well forget it now.

Lessons Learned

  • You can always try again. But don't get too involved with love because it is more likely you're going to get your heart broken.
