Could he hear my heart pounding?

About This Quote

Could he hear my heart pounding? This quote is referring to whether or not the person you are talking to can hear your heartbeat. If the person you are speaking with can’t hear your heart, then they are probably not listening to what you are saying. That’s something that every person wants, but rarely finds in any relationship. So, if you want someone to really listen to you and actually take it seriously, make sure that your heart is pounding.
