Better to have Loved and Lost than not loved at all.

"It hurts to love someone and not be loved in return, but what is the most painful is to love someone and never find the courage to let the person know how you feel.” I think that the greatest regret in life is one that didn't involved taking risk. How would you know if the relationship will work out or not if you don't try and take risk. Pain is inevitable. We all have to experience pain in our lives. It is what makes as stronger person. It is with these that we learn.

Hi. JamieHenriques. I think that it is better to love than to have lost what it feels like to have loved. I feel this way because when you have loved someone, your now know how it feels to love them and to be with them. When you never love someone, you have no clue what it could have felt like to be in love with this person. Sometimes, I tend to feel like I wished that I have never loved a certain person romantically because all they have done is broke my heart.

Although it may be melodramatic, or bittersweet, I truly believe it is better to have loved and lost, than to never have loved at all--if only because love is that powerful. If you have never experienced love, you cannot know what it is. Love is not about just the good, but it is everything--good, bad, indifferent. Love is unconditional. So even if you are crushed, you know that you are capable of loving only after you have experienced true love...
