Six-Word Conversation About Your Heart

I recently read an article in Reader’s Digest (February 2009—no, I’m not a really slow reader, just slow at finding leisure time) that featured some excerpts from a book called Six Word Memoirs on Love & Heartbreak.

I may add more as I think of them. I challenge you to attempt this literary and sentimental exercise about your relationship with your spouse or kids and would love to hear what you come up with.
