Two friends, and romantics, are chatting about their love affairs. One makes a long face and says that nothing is for certain, especially love, because his fiancé is having second thoughts about marrying him. The other one says: 'No! There is a soul mate out there for you, and this, my friend, is quite certain. God didn't create people to be sad and lonely.' The sad one replies to this: 'Maybe so, but I really love her, and I whish that her heart belonged to me for certain.' His friend says: 'How about an appropriate riddle? Can you tell me, how could a woman's heart belong to a man, without a doubt in his mind?'

Or, of course, he is a canibal and ripped her heart out.

Unless he eats it, he needn't be a canibal. He might be an ancient Aztec.

Just watched Pirates of the Caribbean last night--could have been better--but of course there is a heart locked in a box and buried on an island in the middle of nowhere--even then you cannot be certain that it belongs to you and will belong to you without a doubt in your mind!
Rather, I suggest that the man take control of his mind: hypnosis is my guess!

Well, if the canibal ate her heart then it would belong to him without a doubt.
