more tough shit

I was once told that the heart is often smarter than the brain.

Then why is it hard for people to let go, and realize a love that can never be reciprocated?
Why do people keep on holding on to something that's not really stable?
Why do people allow themselves to become stupid or make a fool out of their own selves?
Why are they scared to face the facts?

Even if the person they like, likes them back, but wouldn't pursue it, then some things are probably not meant to be.

The question is...
Is it really necessary to answer why?

Its often easier not to make sense out of things.
