I know the answer to this but in your own opinion, which is far more better? Loving and feel the pain of losing? Or not to engage thyself in a relationship so you can save youself from the pain?

You know, I think I've heard this line before from a series... Did you get this from "That 70's Show? Ha ha. Anyways, my answer is the latter. It's better for me to not engage in a relationship. If you do not know anything about it, how can you feel it? Simple as that. I know that it's kind of cruel or anything negative but I hope you respect my opinion. I really do not think that it's better to make yourself feel the pain when you do not need to. And this goes for a lot of things, not just love. Great discussion by the way.

I respect your opinion. I sometimes feel that its okay to love and lost. But when I feel such pain, I tell myself I will never love. I'll just be in the safe side when nobdoy can hurt me. I hope you get what I mean. :(

For me I do believe in this saying, I would rather feel the pain of loving than never taste it.
I dont want to be a living zombie who opted to be always in the safe zone and dont want to go out and explore something more. No matter what the relationship ends, at least I could say that I've already experienced the feeling of being loved and loved than nothing at all.

We all have the power to choose what we deem important in this world. We can value the good and happy. We can value the pain and hurt. I always value the good and happy. We sure wouldn't want to leave that out of life regardless of what hurt might come along!!Besides if you avoid relationships because you might get hurt, you might just miss out on your next great love affair.
