Love causes the most intense pleasures we feel in our life. It also causes the most intense pain. Have you ever regretted falling in love with someone? Or do you just look back on the good times?

Hi Joseph! I don't ever regret falling in love. Even if I have experienced so much pain, I don't regret it. Even when I fell in love with a guy who only wanted to take advantage of me, I did not regret it. He made me feel as if he liked me, too and then I learned he already has a girlfriend. When he learned of my feelings for him, he told one of my co-workers he would date me if I would agree to be his number two. That was so painful. Not just to my heart but to my pride, too. That time, I regretted falling in love with him. But as time went by, I did not. I was just thankful that I am able to fall in love (and I'm thankful I did not fall for his trap) and experience the beauty of it. I don't mind being hurt because with that, I can appreciate the happiness of being in love.

This is the "never" thing in me. I was broken,hurt by someone but I never ever regretted loving him. I lost him after giving my best and it's enough. I might feel regret if I never did my best. But since I had given my best and still it wasn't good enough...I never felt any regret then. He is not my lose...but he lost me.

There is nothing to regret above loving someone. If he / she is not the one, continue looking for the right person. Love bring us together, but it can also destroy the relationship. If love is not meant to be, meaning fate is at another end. Embrace ourselves to look for the right person, to love and to cherish til the end of time.

No, I do regret about loving or falling in love with anyone. While things may not have turned out the way I fancied, I do not regret opening my heart to anyone.

Yes. I loved them but they lied and really never did feel the same about me. They just wanted to hurt me alot.

It is no use crying over the spilt milk. So I don't regret falling in love with my ex-girlfriend. Instead I appreciate her for the pleasures and wonderful time we spent together. Although we parted after more than five years' time, which made me feel very hurt emotionally, it is past. Sometimes I even wish to have a chance to meet her somewhere. What we do every day will eventually become part of our life history. Thanks for the discussion, JosephP.

Personally, I don't know since I'm still with the guy I first fell in love with. But I have asked my boyfriend before if there's anything he regretted and life and he told me he regretted dating certain people (the 2 he dated before me). He thought he loved them but they turned out to be wrong for him and hurt him many times. But the thing is, if you TRULY love someone I don't think you fall out of love with them and you certainly wouldn't regret falling in love with them either. I think that some people just love the idea of love and sometimes they don't truly love someone, even though they think they do. Only when you meet your actual true love will you know what true love is. It's kind of hard to explain but you'll certainly know the feeling once you have it.

Yes love is mysterious when trying to explain it with words. It just has to be felt. Thanks for your response

Hi joseph, yes I really keep on regretting about the time I was fall in love with him. I was blinded by my feelings on him. But sometimes just to cover all the hatred I feel inside I keep on reminiscing all the good times we had but its not enough. We know that regrets really came at last and there is nothing we can do about it. We feel in love and that's it.

Hi JosephP, I do not regret ever falling in love with someone. Love is a beautiful thing, it is true sometime we find our self broken heart and hurt because of the relationship we had but it doesnt mean love is a bad thing. It is not the love that caused the pain, but the people in the relationship who created their own pain. Mostly a broken relationship caused by high ego between both sides, i realized it. I have a high ego, I dont like when my man dictated me to do things I dont like and my man thought that the man is the leader in a relationship, so it was the main problem in my relationship and how it was broken but I dont regret love. When something goes wrong, the best we can do is to learn from it. Regret wont take us anywhere if it is not followed by learning to be better in future.

No, i never regret falling in love with someone even if i was hurt by that person, because it help me grow or realize something. No one is perfect in this world and you cannot expect to have a happy ending on that person you've fallin' in love. But i don't remember them for the bad things that had happen but the good memories instead.

No, i never regret falling in love with someone even it causing so much pain. Because of that someone, he helps me to be brave and be strong in facing trials that God given to me. And i realized that i can continue my life even he's not in my life anymore.
