Rebreaking Bones

So, interesting thing, if you break a bone, like say your arm, and  you don't get it taken care of properly, like set properly, or if you take it out of the cast too early, you may have to go back to the doctor and have the bone rebroken and reset. Someone at church shared a story about this a few weeks ago, how he got impatient and what could have healed in a month or two ended up being a major problem for over a year.  Today, I learned that dating break ups can kind of be the same thing. If you don't set the break properly, you'll have to re break it later, or it will never heal. So my ex is back in town, and started texting me again, and I was a bit irritated because well, mainly I wasn't sure that he got the point that I wanted to stay broke up, that it was a permanent decision, not just a while you are out of town thing. so we had  a conversation about it. unfortunately via text, which is less than ideal, but strangely we were able to communicate and understand each other better than the face to face months ago. it was painful all over again, and i said basically the same things, but he was more awake this time, so maybe that is the difference. I don't know, but I guess I have learned a valuable lesson, though I hope I never have to break up with anyone ever again,I hope I can just marry the next one.  I probably will have to break up again, but next time, I will try to make sure the break is set properly so it doesn't have to be rebroken and reset, which is painful and awkward.
