Explanation

The analogy compares a romantic break-up to a broken mirror. The most logical completion emphasizes that attempting to repair a broken mirror (or relationship) can cause more harm than accepting the break. This metaphor suggests that sometimes it's safer to leave something broken than to hurt yourself trying to fix what cannot be made whole again.
