it's funny to think how much you can make a comparison of the girls and cars in my life. it's always love at first sight. the first month or so is great. then the problems start showing up. a strange noise here, a stupid fight there. then comes the point of a major breakdown. i always struggle with the debate of trying to fix it, no matter what the cost, or cut ties. regardless of the decision, in the long run i always end up losing it. it gets to the point where not even the most skilled technician can fix it without permanently damaging my wallet and heart. everything i've ever loved and cared for fails me, eventually.
