Yes. There are, as has been stated, different ways of having your heart broken. For example, I still miss my deceased pet ferret every day. Sometimes I expect to hear her rustling around in the cage that's not by the computer anymore. One of the best friends I've ever had.
And I've had my heart broken, or at least hurt, by a girl I knew. Know. At the time, I wasn't...*trails off* I've done a heck of a lot of growing up in the last 2-4 years, and it's unfortunate that she hasn't been able to see that, that we don't have a chance now. She's got a steady boyfriend now, seems happy, and we keep in infrequent contact, so I guess I should be happy that she's happy and we've been able to talk occasionally. Unfortunately, I get to see altogether too much of him, or him and her together, which is...annoying in a strange way. Sometimes memories can really suck.
