SELF PERSPECTIVE

I'm not talking about my own self perspective I'm talking about how self absorbed everybody tends to be in their own. It's hard for some people to understand me lately. I finally got frustrated with a friend today and I had to ask if she had ever had her heart broken. She thought for a moment and said no. And there we were. The second mistake though is that people tend to be myopic and are only really able to reflect on the present. I explained to her that I think that maybe the human heart can only be broken so many times before it just stops. And people relate that perspective to the present tense. 

Only my therapist seems to grasp the entire timeline of my life and understand that it's accumulative.  

Sorry I'm such a downer - feel free to completely ignore me. Believe me I completely understand.
