Quoted: C.S. Lewis on Love
"Love anything and your heart will be wrung and possibly broken. If you want to make sure of keeping it intact you must give it to no one, not even an animal. Wrap it carefully round with hobbies and little luxuries; avoid all entanglements. Lock it up safe in the casket or coffin of your selfishness. But in that casket, safe, dark, motionless, airless, it will change. It will not be broken; it will become unbreakable, impenetrable, irredeemable. To love is to be vulnerable."

Yes, giving someone your heart is risky, as is anything in life, but it's undeniably worth the risk if there's even the slightest possibility of finding your one true love. I did and I feel like I'm the luckiest and most fortunate person in the world. I hope it never ends Love you bunches.
