You don't have a choice...you love who you love. May not always lead to a healthy and lasting relationship, but loving and losing makes you one of those cool people who have LIVED! Lol...and then you can write heartbreaking songs or something. Seriously, I can't stand people who have never experienced heartbreak. They give the worst relationship advice.

Why should we enjoy life or make the most of it if we know it will lead to death and sadness for everyone who is close to us? Isn't it better to completely isolate yourself from society and touch no-one else's life? Then no-one would get hurt and you could sit around all day just scared about taking a chance.

Love is amazing, and it isn't like you can waste your only shot at it like you can do with life.
If you're to scared to go out and find love because it might lead to heartbreak then that's completely up to you, but at least let it happen to you. Love is everywhere, not just between two people who are in a relationship.

I think somewhere deep down we know that it shouldn't. "Heartbreak" is an obstacle to true love and I believe we're making a point when we try again and keep on loving.

Why do anything, then, if we'll all eventually die? We love because it's part of being human. Sometimes heartbreak happens, but hopefully we have the coping mechanisms to get over it and learn from it.

Leading a life with no risk is no fun. Step outside your comfort zone. The outcomes and life experiences far outweigh the heartbreak.

I think that's the one question we all ask and I think if you believe love is worth it, go after it. We're all searching for love and in most cases we don't intend to hurt one another. I think we have to be willing to be vulnerable. It's almost like giving someone a knife and trusting them to not stab you in the chest.

One day it'll be worth it and all the pain and heartbreak will seem meaningless when you find the lasting love for which we are all looking.

I'd hate to use the old adage "It is better to have loved and lost, than to have never loved at all" but it really is true. There are remarkable beautiful things out there that this world has to offer...and I do not think you can appreciate those things without knowing what love, pain, disappointment, longing, and heartache feels like.

People who get heart broken usually don't have patience. If you think about it most people look at attraction as a first trait in someone. Once they start dating that someone they get emotionally attached to their looks and not their personality. They'll start having sex and that's all they'll look forward to is that physical kind of love. Then later on eventually one realizes that the other is not right for them so they break it off. The person who get's heart broken is left clueless. That's basically how the story goes. Or if one get's rejected by someone who they are emotionally attached too. I think you need to make a good friendship to know that you have things in common before you decide to get physical.

Being emotionally numb is a curse that no one should subject themselves to. Love of a person, a thing or and idea is the greatest form of emotional stimulation. It can even be better than drugs or sex but like everything that produces such a great feeling, you have to give something up as collateral and in love it's your soul. The greatest feeling has some of the greatest risk attached to it but all the more reason to chase with relentless intent.

Heartbreak can be so wrenching, for sure, but love so affirming. I think we sometimes get caught by this idea that since we've developed such mastery and control over our environment (or at least we think we have..) we can do the same with our feelings. Human beings weren't made to be unpleasant-emotion-proof. It's all part of our condition.

Love can lead to heartbreak, but it doesn't always. It's a crap shoot. And you can improve your odds by knowing yourself and your needs and wants and so on before entering into any kind of relationship, and by carefully vetting potential love interests. You may very well find yourself in love with the perfect person for you, and be blissfully, magically in love.

If one puts conditions on love then it's bound to break if that person don't meet the criteria. If it is love without conditions then it will last

If you don't get your heart broken a few times, you don't learn anything about yourself. You never get to figure out what exactly you want in a significant other and what you are/aren't willing to sacrifice.

Because it is wonderful to love and be loved. It doesn't always end in heartbreak. Then again, your lifespans may not be the same and eventually one will die and the other is left to carry on alone. However, you can love again, and again. Your supply of love and your capacity for love will never run dry.
