About This Quote

The idea is that love is such a complicated emotion that you can never quite figure out what it is. When you try to analyze what love is, you end up with nothing but confusion and shame. The best thing to do when in love is to pretend like the whole thing doesn't matter and force yourself not to think about it. This way, you'll save yourself from the embarrassment of trying your best and ending up in a relationship that kills your spirit.
