The other day I was talking to a girl friend about relationships. She has been in about three serious relationships where she has been in love with the guy, but has had to deal with horrible heartbreaks. I have never been in love. She argued that it is better to have never been in love than to have to deal with heartbreak so many times. I argued that it is better to be in love and then lose it than to never know what the emotion feels like. Even though I don't know how it feels to be heartbroken, I would imagine that the feeling of love outweighs that of heartbreak.
So what do you think, is it better to have loved and lost or to have never loved at all?

each person is different. I prefer the first one.
"A boy can't become a man until his heart has been broken."
It's something that's often overlooked by those who wish they had never loved at all, the fact that pain can be the catalyst for growth... I know that i matured greatly over the yearlong span i was dealing with my heartache, so i wouldn't wish away that pain since it made me who I am today... and i love that guy! (most days...)
