scar tissue

Can one really ever mend a broken heart? Or does scar tissue just cover the wound with deception;over time you just don't FEEL as much because the wound has been buried beneath,and the tissue becomes hardened.

I wrote a really good essay on this once...then lost it. Here's my short answer: Yes, a broken heart can be fully mended, with time, and a lot of soul-searching. I know that sounds a bit lame, but I don't want to get carried away. My best advice would be this: when you do move on, try to judge your next partner with a new set of eyes. Don't act as if you expect to be hurt again... or else you likely will be.
