What hurts more: to have your leg broken or to have your heart broken?!


Question: I think having your heart broken is much worse. With physical pain it is easier to accept because you know the cause and you have some sort of time frame for how long it takes to get better, with a broken heart it seems to be more unexpected. Depending on the length and depth of the relationship you may never get over it. Many elderly people die not long after a loved partner has and it has been suggested that this can be of a broken heart.
A broken heart can physically hurt. It is called a broken heart because that is what it can feel like.

On a final note, I believe that a strong love is worth the possibility of getting a broken heart!

The leg will heal. Sometimes the heart doesn't.

i can deal with heart pain, but i don't want to deal with physical pain

It doesn't take that long to mend a broken heart.

Sometimes however, a broken leg could cause surgery.

But there have been cases of people, and animals, dying of "broken hearts."

What an odd comaprison.

Physically the leg, and emotionally the heart. Two different types of pain. You can't really compare, but if you could compare I think most would likely say the heart hurts more.

Had both. Left leg virtually shattered healed 9 months
Broken heart with girl I truly loved 8 years.

The heart hurt more at the beginning and took the longest.

What if the broken leg causes the heart to break because you can't play your favorite sport for a year....or maybe ever again.

Really, a broken heart hurts all over and is indescribable. I've never broken a bone, so I'll go with the heart.

heart broken
