I feel what you feel here girl, I'm WAY overprotected too....
oh, in one of your quotes you said,
"If love hurts,
Then why the hell love?"
and the reason to love is because love really is the greatest thing in the world, and it's really what keeps this world spinning.....like Amit says, Always believe in love.
