Is it better to have a wall around your heart than to have it exposed and possibly destroyed?

It's better to experience life IMHO.  That includes pleasure and pain.

I agree with you.  I also find exceptions to every rule.  Some people truly become some emotionally tied down by their environment that they do not see the options available to them to change and even when they do, the damage has left so many scars that to remove the scar tissue would leave such an embicle that it would be like taking an adult and putting an infants brain into it and beginning from scratch.  It sounds good on paper, but in reality, there are those cases where environment gets the upper hand.  Very fortunately, there are a lot more cases where environment loses out to a stronger will to do something about the way it has been and make choices that alter the way a person has been living.  I know.  I did it.  I do it every day.  So here's to making the choices that change lives!

Still with fencing. Done correctly you are less likely to get hurt.

if you are truly fine with the way things are then dont open that can of worms. you will just get attached and then he will die and you will be hurt. then again, if you arent okay with it and are just telling yourself that then if you do nothing and he does die withought you making up it will hurt you. its a personal decision.

It would be terrible for my emotional well-being, and would then affect physical health because of sleep deprivation. I'd answer this question yes ... cover your windows.

Its better to have loved and lost than to never have loved at all.\nWhen you get a chance, love with all your heart and passion!\n(and hope that you lose)

Any human with the capacity to love gets attached pretty easily. There's nothing wrong with that either. Yes, we do have to separate ourselves sometimes and try not to get too attached to some things or people (like puppies you're going to sell or give away) and it can be tough sometimes, but ya know what? Thank God that you are able to love because those that cannot love lose so much. I'm sure you've heard the "tis better to have loved and lost than to never have loved at all" quote, (may not be exact, but you get it), well, never was a truer word spoken. When you love, love with your whole heart, never half-way. God bless. =)

When your have the house to yourself so nobody can catch you, I mean interrupt (LOL! just kidding).\n\nSafe? It depends on what want to be safe from.  Diseases, there are many and not only strangers carry them, people you know may have them.  "Protection" (and I don't mean guns) works but not always, there's always a chance something could go wrong.\n\nSafe from just being used? Heartbreak?  As far as that's concerned the only way to be safe is to really get to know someone before you fall head over heels (easier said than done).\n\nIn my opinion what's most important is to be ready mentally, not just physically.  It's a feeling of comfort only you can give yourself.  Nobody should talk you into it or pressure you.  You will know when the time is right.  I hope I was helpful!

I think beating is worse cause at least you don't have to feel that type of pain and worse it could kill you or severly disfigure you.  Emotional pain from cheating is hard to but physical pain is far worse

depends.\nIf it's meant to be then It's meant to be.\nYou can't control the heart.

obviously the ideal situation is when your mind and heart are connected with what you are doing\n\nbut what if they are not?\n\nmake a strong case for either side

ALWAYS MIND. WHEN U USE HEART U ARE MAKING DECISIONS BASED ON EMOTIONS, AND OUR EMOTIONS AREN'T ALWAYS STABLE. SO IF U THINK THINGS THROUGH AND USE UR MIND, U WILL ALWAYS BE MAKING THE RIGHT DECISION.

Playing russian roulette.  Yes it can be quite dangerous.  Wishing it to go away is silly because without knowing what is going on and fixing the problem even exercise my be problematic.\n\nIf this true happened, call 911.\n\nPain has nothing to do with how mild a heart attack is.  How do you figure out the severity of a heart attack?\n\nPeople get heart attacks because the pipe/pipes (coronary arteries) that supply blood  to you heart muscle is clogged up. When the heart muscle cannot get enough blood (oxygen and nutrients), that muscle dies off.  Without knowing where the blockage is occurring and how much of a blockage, you cannot really assess the potential damage.  It is quite possible to have one mild heart attack and then another.  The key is time.  The faster you can open up your arteries the less amount of heart muscle damage.  \n\nIn addition, damages heart muscles are arrythmogenic.  It is not uncommon for patients with heart attacks to also damage the electrical system in there heart.  They can develope fatal arrythmias.\n\nNext, heart problems can occur on a spectrum.  Patients can have stable angina unstable angina and heart attack.  How can we be sure that your chest pain is not unstable angina?  The chest pain can be a warning sign for a major heart attack.\n\nLastly, without proper medicines after you heart attack, the dead area in your heart undergoes changes ie remodeling.  This remodeling is the normal healing process but it changes the mechanics of your heart.  It can worsen the functioning of your heart.

I'd save the one in greatest peril first, to increase the chances that I could save the other one in time as well.  It's a loaded question, no good way to answer without feeling bad.

depends on the people i guess. do what you feel in your heart is best for you both.

I believe it would be unhealthy to block out emotions like that; it would interfere with brain chemistry.  I beleive what you are reffering to is an acceptance of emotions and, without acting on them, letting them go.  It is quite difficult to understand that concept and even more difficult to act on it, however.

It's better to have heart without words than words without heart
