“My heart was broken twice in the same day at that location.”

Champaign, IL

just under a year ago, i left my heart in red hook, brooklyn.  i went to revisit it last week, and it was still there!  no one had stolen it–it had just been slightly defaced.  i agree with the sentiment.

This heart was found in New York city by Nadine. Maybe someone’s heart was broken over tea? Has anyone’s hip heart ever been broken at The Roebling Tea House? I’d be curious to know…

text reads: “I’m not mad at you and its not even about yesterdays arguement. Its never going to change and there’s nothing we can do about it. Its not anyones fault, its just the way we are ”

“the landscape has changed a bit, that new siding on that building was not there, i remember it being pretty grubby and the cement all falling apart, and there was no fence - but that is the loading dock thingy that i sat on and cried my eyes out because my heartbreaker told me i wasn’t the one he wanted. a nice girl even stopped to ask if my sobby sorry self was okay. i don’t know who she was but she was sweet.”

We have the first official broken hearts of the year!!!!
One on each coast: Washington & New York–same heartbreakee.

Photos soon–let us know if you see them before then.

Well the site is still in the works, but we already have participants working on their broken hearts and some new content on the way, so check back often!

In relevant news, I’ve started 2 broken hearts and painted them white this past weekend. I left them to dry and –coincidentally– my first heartbreaker stepped on my heart! Without noticing or caring of course–some things don’t change, do they? Pretty funny.
