The hearts will fill up or decrease over time as you talk to people and gift them. Each heart represents 250 [[friendship]] points. Speaking to a villager once a day gives 20 points, while ignoring them for a day will depreciate 2 points, so don't ignore your friends! If you reach 10 hearts with a non-marriage candidate or 8 hearts with a bachelor/bachelorette to whom you have not given a [[bouquet]], the row of hearts will no longer decay even if you do not speak to them ever again. | The hearts will fill up or decrease over time as you talk to people and gift them.
