Do you believe that love is sweeter the second time around?

How sweet of you to care for her and be there when she had her heart torn. All you can do is simply love and care for her. As difficult as it may sound sometimes people need to experience a few bumps before they either let go for good and or repair their love. Good thing she has you caring so much for her and yes it is odd to me to hear it is sweeter the second time, but maybe because after being hurt a few times I will not continue to be hurt and this basically is what is happening with her. She may not know until she tries again, and maybe it will be a great relationship and maybe not, but it is something she herself has to figure out. Just continue to be there for her, and hopefully she will understand and cherish your love for her.

hi, I'm also confused with your sister's answer. What does she mean by that. How can her boyfriend of five years suddenly disappear without any explanation. Did you ask you sister how come her boyfriend suddenly disappear? I don't think it's right for her boyfriend to just suddenly disappear like that.

SOme maybe it is, because you can only know the value of a person when you lose him/her..

Sad to say I dont believe that love is sweeter the second time around. How can you be trust a person who already hurt you. The fear that the person will hurt you again may hunt you every now and then. But I do believe in giving second chances. You may give the person a second chance but be carefull not to give everything, save some for your self so that if your partner will hurt you again, it will be easy for you to pick up pieces and start all over again.

One cannot truly grasp the intensity of the feelings that lovers share for each other. Though your sister experienced hurt via a bad break up, she still managed to forgave her ex and gave him a second chance. It might be perplexing on your part but for your sister, it is the most logical and right thing to do. All that we need and must do is to let her decide for her own, we might be scared considering the time we spent seeing our loved one getting hurt. Anyhow, their love life is not ours to decide and control. We'll just continue to support and love them, to be there for them when the going gets tough, and to share their cheers during happy times. And I hope that for your sister's sake, that her relationship with her boyfriend will be indeed sweeter..the second time around. God bless!

I believe that love is sweeter the second time around because you will never know the value of someone unless you lose her. If destiny leads lovers back again, it would be sweeter because they've already overcame things that hindered them to love each other completely.

Hello hot_legs, I believe it's her choice if she allows him in her life again, with the risk of getting the same mistake, she's risking it again. Not all women wouldn't want to go through that again, but she's brave but a bit risky and stupid for allowing it. but who would want to argue with the heart even if the brain is totally logic about not giving him another chance. besides, if they go down the aisle "some day" then that would be rare.. no logical explanation can comprehend what's on the heart. come to think of it, the heart doesn't think, it feels..have a nice day

I think that for a relationship to be 'the second time around' means it has already undergone some trials and pains. Specially if there was a break up. I think relationships are tested when it undergoes such trials. And if a couple survives, then it just make for their relationship to be stronger. Thus making it sweeter.

for us who had never experienced it could never tell what is sweet afte being hurt. I too can't tell it but I have seen it with my aunt's relationship. Actually not only the second time around but fourth time around.. Now they are doing well.

what happened to your sister is what happened to me this week actually. a boy was saying he loved me for two years. i fell for him past year and we been together but bcs we live so far and he was always busy i said maybe better we break up bcs i was getting much hurt with a lot of expectations. anyway we agreed to wait for each other. so is like being with the person still right? i was without message him for more or less a month bcs i couldnt afford to pay internet bcs im jobless. and my family has debts so i couldnt message him but i said to him i will write him letters. just days ago i been online bcs i missed him and wanted to check how he was i didnt care if had to pay you know, bcs maybe this month i would be hired in a company, and i just saw in his facebook status he was married with other girl. i was so shocked i messaged him asking what was that if was a joke? and he just answered me saying that when he needed me i wasnt there and she was. that he thought i forgot him bcs appeared lucky in one month. the truth is i told him i couldnt be online so much and that would send him letters and second if he needed me so much why didnt try to call me or sent me an sms? isnt so that expensive so i would find a way to talk to him. i always came tired from work and wrote a letter to him. every single day. i sent him two letters just didnt send a third one without his answer first. i didnt want to be the only one caring so much. i always cared, i was looking for a job to go see him in his country and he accused me not to be there when he needed :( about your sister im sorry that that guy did that to her. so he left her for other girl and now wants her back? i mean your sister really loves him a lot lot to accept him back. its very hard to accept something like that after someone hurts us that way by choosing someone else. and then asks for us again.

So they must be meant for each other, because after 5 years they would still end up with each other. Well, your sister really love the guy, so why not give him another chance. Perhaps because now as a starter again, they have settled all their differences with each other, they can have better relationship this time.

Yes, It is more sweeter the relationship in a second time around. That is true. Because for the past 5 years you didn't see your love one and then now you were see each other again. Misses to each other that is the reason why more sweeter than before...

maybe, but that is an old maxim.... but for me, i do believe that love is much sweeter the last time around.....

Love can be sweeter the second time around. Its great your sister and her guy got back together. Hope he has realised him mistake and does not repeat it again and they be happy together forever......

Hi there, yes, i do believe that love is sweeter the second time around. my partner and i had a misunderstanding before. actually, it was a serious fight since she deceived me... i discovered that she went to an out of town trip with her. i was left alone here in Manila, feeling sick and all but she did not dare to call or text me...i was hurt bigtime... i didn't know what to do. i told her to go away but she came back and said sorry. i gave her a second chance and that chance was worth it... we are very together now... we have just celebrated our 6th anniversary last march... :)

For me yes because i would it to my husband now because you settled the wrong in you and him if it is fixed then they tight up again that's why it is happened.

I think it is okay to forgive and to give chance to a person. If your sister see that his boyfriend is sincere with his coming back then why not try one more time? But I suggest she should not fully trust him again. Let them have the time to be together again.
