I'm curious as to your thoughts coz I can see both sides.

better to have loved and lost than have spent the rest of my life with that psycho.

Love is more than words and actions.... it's all about the mind..

I think you can think in cliches 👆

It is neither better nor worse. Both hurt and both are, in their own separate ways, unbearable.

Storm: "If you're not reaching forward to any growth or future, you might as well be dead."

Reaching forward to growth and a future also means moving closer to one's eventual death. Every moment forward in life is a moment closer to the end of life.

i think the cliche is true, i mean wouldn't you rather be able to say "yeah, i ahve had a girlfriend/boyfriend" than "uhh..... no i have never had a relationship". but then again, i guess you have to experience it it too. i myself am in the midst of my first real relationship and to me there is no better feeling in the world, so i guess it is all up to the person.

nothing is greater than the love of a patriot....

remember that!!!

Hummm...Is it better to of loved and lost than to of never loved at all.

Though to love and lose that love would sometimes feel like death.

To never to of loved would be death 🙁

What is life without love, i haven't experianced it but i don't wanna be alone anymore! any ladies intrested in an honest guy, brown hair, and English?

^ lol

Love for others eliminates selfishness... If there is selfishness, then there is no love for others, other than oneself...

"nothing is greater than the love of a patriot....remember that!!"

No mind more dead either.

WTF??

I think it is better to have loved and lost because at least then yopu would have had the joy of love, I have never been in love but I would hate to spend the rest of my life like this. It would be terrible to have never loved

If you've never loved than how would the age-old axiom apply to someone who has never experienced love?

That's the whole deal.

Is it better to go without the happiness/hurt combo of love and just live never knowing?

I don't think so.

Love is a disease, all it does is either forces you in to living a particular lifestyle where you have to do everything to make the other happy or suffer the consequences - and trust me...consequences hurt more than physical pain.

I'd rather not get AIDS, so if i had a choice...i'd never fall in love.

Never knowing? we dont know how it feels [most of us] to have a horrible disease but we can read about the effects and what can happen to us. would you prefer experiencing it? logically, No.

Love is being honest with yourself at all times, being honest with the other person at all times, telling, listening, respecting the truth and never pretending. Love is an understanding so complete that you feel as if you are a part of the other person.

Love is the freedom to pursue your own desires while sharing your experiences with the other person, the growth of one individual alongside of and together with the growth of another individual.

Love is giving and taking in a daily situation and being patient with each other' s needs and desires.

It's wrong to say that it is not love at all... I think he's just fustrated at love, to say those words...
