Distant Memories

It is indeed a very useful mechanism in the brain that people we once loved will eventually become distant, vague memories. It begins with a hatred, but once you have new love to replace it with, they will fade, fade in the ashes of the past. And you will not remember the good memories well, and that is very good indeed. Imagine what would happen if you didn't! We would live our lives with constant pain and torture by the sweet nightmares of the past.

Viva natural selection! Viva human brain!!
