About This Quote

"How could you love something so destructive?" I ask."Because this wolf doesn't care if your heart is whole or not," you say. "It tastes just the same." This is a story about the pain and anguish and all the other feelings we go through when we try to love someone we can't trust completely. When we can't trust them completely, we don't know if they will take advantage of our weakness or if they will hurt us. That's what makes it hard to love someone.

The heart knows what it wants, but the mind doesn't always understand what's happening. So, we end up hurting each other. And, that hurts even more than having to watch out for ourselves because then we know that the person we love is hurting us, too."How could you love something so destructive?" I ask."Because this wolf doesn't care if your heart is whole or not," you say.

"It tastes just the same." This quote says that no matter how destructive someone may be to your heart, overall that person does not care about your happiness in the long run because they are not in love with you in their true form. As long as they are able to taste the same pleasure in hurting you as they do in loving you, then they are with you for their own pleasure and not with any real affection for you.
