Getting over an ex carfriend?

Fix the coolant leak, the feeling of accomplishment and of making the car right again will help you love the car...also clean it real good, it helps getting the previous owner's dirt off of it.

This is a good lesson in life, because you will always have to adjust to change and learn how to deal with it in a positive way. Things will rarely suit you 100%, you have to 'settle' a little bit but still be happy with 80%.
