    to have loved and lost, or to never have loved at all?


    i know, its an age old question, and pretty corny.. but i have seriously been wondering about it lately.


    i think i already decided what i think but.. what do you think?

    i would always think that it would be better to have loved and lost then to never have loved at all.

    i think if you had never loved at all, then life wouldnt be as meaningful. at least if you had loved and then lost, you at least had loved and probably felt some extrodinary things you could of never felt ever without it.

    not loving is worse

    I think we all ahve to go through some shitty times in our life, some pain and sorrow to truly recognize what happiness and joy is. If everything's the same all the time, how are you gonna recognize/deal with change when it happens, yaknow?

    I love being in love (aha, see sig for the whole quote), and yes breakups suck completely but the joy you feel while in love is worth it for me, it just is

    i've never really been fully "in love", but im guessing its better to have the highs and lows then then just the median

    i already have a few high and lows in life, so a few higher and lower ones cant be anyworse unless i never lived them [​IMG]

    I would say to have never been loved.

    At least you get to know love and be happy at some point if you lose him/her.

    Depends on the nature of the "lost love".

    If it was a completly shitty horrible way to lose someone (for example, them raping you and then them getting thrown in jail) it would proobbly have been better to never have loved. However, if you loved them, and then it just ended, or they died or something, then it would have been better to have loved.

    Maybe I am thinking to deeply into it...

    I hold it true
    Whate'er befall
    I feel it when I sorrow most
    'tis better to have loved and lost
    than never to have loved at all.

    I have loved and lost....I would much rather have that than never feel love. It's such a beatiful emotion. Though, you may lose what it is you love, you still have those memories of the person, it picks you up when you're down.
    Never think of the negative aspect of it....only the positive. Losing the love only opens the door for another opportunity to love.

    Well imo its better to love than to have lost um because it can cause less effort to love than to go through life in hate i guess and in a world that shows love as something positive and negative elements, I guess I would not want to have missed out it :p ........ Well that's only the reason I could think of at the mo
