break ups, brake up
the thing about break ups - they will never be really clean, whoever said that they broke up cleanly, is not telling the whole truth, you don't break up cleanly, break ups are always messy, and it depends on how much you have in you to clean up the mess,
but it all boils down to one simple rule,
actually, i'm not quite sure whether i should use the word "rule"
but yeah, there's one simple rule,
just after a break up, ask yourself whether you still love the person, if you still do,
please, do not start another relationship,
you will just end up hurting yourself and the other,
because, sooner or later, the embers of old, will be reignited into flames, sparks will fly with your old flame, and you will end up compromising your new relationship (this almost always will end unclean)
yeah, that's the rule - be sure you have no desire for your ex, before starting another relationship
another round of fool's philosophy from me
