About This Quote

In the midst of a break up, some people will try to convince themselves that they still love their partner even though they have been through a long history of being together. They will claim that there’s no way they could ever stop loving them, no matter how badly they have been treated. However, science tells us that this is a lie. In fact, the only way to truly love someone is to take care of yourself first and see what happens after that.

We all know that this is what our body needs to function properly. If you took out all of your arteries, veins, and capillaries (the tiny blood vessels in your body), and tied them end-to-end, you would die within ten minutes. You can’t truly love someone if you don’t take care of yourself first.
