    It is better to be loved and lost because without being loved...then you won't have passion or even have your heart to grow stronger which I know it is painful to have break ups or even lose a love one in death.

    Never to have love at all then it is a lonely world for you. Your heart will not be strong.

    Just remember you only live once and just make the most of it! Don't be afraid to use your heart! =)

    I'd rather never love at all.

    Cause if I love and lose, then I still have the terrible memories the rest of my life.

    Of course some people say to think of the happy memories, but I am pessimistic

    I would say loving and losing is better. Although it doesn't always feel that way after a break up. I know people who stay single by choice and they seem pretty happy, I have done the same for periods in my life. But ultimately I need people and desire to have relationships with the opposite sex and to me it's worth it to love because it makes me feel alive. That's just my personal opinion.

    Loved and lost. If I don't think I can survive and possibly grow from painful experiences I might as well hide from the rest of my life, also.

    I may not do grief well but I can still get through it. I do not want to be numb and fearful, I know I will get through life on life's terms and find pain but also joy.

    Otherwise just sedate me haha.

    Source(s): Loved, lost, loved again. And again.

    i'm weak. i would rather not have loved at all and not experience the pain of a loss of my loved one. then again, i am grateful for the loved one i do have now and don't ever want to give that up. so maybe being loved is good even at a loss.

    Never loving at all is better. I can't explain but if you want to be happy never love any one.
