Favorite broken heart

To have a favorite broken heart, means that you have one specific ex-boy/girlfriend, in which you are still friends with, or would like to be on good terms with, and think of the relationship as only a memory. You may feel sympathy for the breakup, and this person might still be in love with you, even if both of you have moved on, however you do not want to get back together with this person, and you wish this person nothing but the best. To go more into depth on what this means, it means that you have already moved on from this person, but you are thankful for the relationship and the fact that you experienced it with them, and you are always willing to maintain a healthy friendship.

If this doesn't make sense, think about this:

You have a boyfriend/girlfriend. The relationship is cool, and then you guys break up. You remember the relationship, and you are thankful that the relationship is over, but you are also thankful that you went through it, too, because you may have learned a lesson from the relationship, or you love how smooth things were going, DURING the relationship.
You can only have one, favorite broken heart. You would be willing to go through it all again, also.

It's like reading a good book, with a terrible ending.

This term, actually comes from the song by Tiffany Evans, "Favorite Broken Heart".
example 1: I broke up with Sasha about a year ago, but she still likes me, and we're still very close friends. She's my favorite broken heart.

example 2: Boy#1, and Girl#1 are exes, and Boy#1, has a new girlfriend named Girl#2, but Girl#1 and Boy#1 are still close friends. They are thankful that they experienced a romantic relationship with each other, and they are glad it is over. Boy#1 still has feelings for Girl#2, and low-key wants her back, because of her compassionate personality that Girl#2 does not have. Girl#1 does not want to get back together with Boy#1, but she still admires and cares for him. Boy#1, is Girl#1's favorite broken heart.

Broken Rung Fallacy

Broken rung fallacy.
'This rung is broken... therefore I must climb higher up the ladder!'
When true logic is going back to ground level and starting everything over the right way.
This occurs when someone is so focused on a goal - they push for said goal passed the point of reason.
Usually accompanied with rhetoric such as "there's no going back!" and "if you want to make an omelette, you've got to break some eggs!" - to eliminate 'going back to ground level' as an option.
The ladder always collapses. The farther they've pushed - the more dangerous the crash back down.
Example 1: "Workers need the cheaper goods" is a broken rung fallacy. If the jobs aren't sent over seas in the first place - they can afford the better goods.

Example 2: "Millions of women's lives would be ruined without abortions" is a broken rung fallacy. If our society doesn't encourage promiscuity in the first place - there isn't millions of women pregnant out of wedlock, in the first place.

Example 3: "Neither of us knew our fathers - so we're taking our mother's names" is a broken rung fallacy. Guaranteed both come from nontraditional families - and going farther down this path is just ensuring more broken homes.

the broken car paradox

The broken car paradox is a metaphor for how one hundred percent of relationships end with either a break up or someone dying which leads some so ask "Why even get into a relationship? " the same philosophical idea can be applied to buying a new car. "Why even buy a car if it'll one day fall apart and end up in a junk yard?"
It doesn't matter if I say yes or no to her because of the broken car paradox.
