i think its because people are afraid that they no longer know how to make the next one special

yes it does..it took me quite some time to give my heart to someone even we're in a relationship already..coz i'm afraid that it wouldn't work out the way i wanted and that i was still holding to my past..

it's not the end of the world yet if you fail with your past experience with love pal. It sure hurts for a while but in due time, we need to move on with our own separate lives. We can always make the next one special by not comparing him/her to our ex's. Just give yourself a time to heal and soon everything will be fine. You'll be able to find your one true love who is only meant for you. ;)

people can find love even if they are broken heart . but they need to be cautious. after a break up people cannot trust anyone so easily . there is a simple principle here love the person who loves you and don't go for the person whom you love may be he might not love you. and the result will be another disaster. just judge the person with his thoughts and beliefs and not by looks. because look may deceive

i think any negative experience is always going to make you wary about the next time but you are not repeating the process with the same person so you can not judge them by someone elses actions, you have to try and wipe the slate clean and start again. If you are repeating the process with the same person they are never truely who they once were because every second of the day we are challenged and learning from our experiences so they will have altered even if it's ever so slightly. It is better to have love and lost than to have never loved at all. If you do not take the risk you will never reep the rewards. Of course it's easy to say but actions speak lounder than words you should always go for it or you may miss out and forever regret it.

I dont think its really hard to be in love after a broken heart, its more being afraid to admit to it, you still fall in love regardless!!! U do put up more barriers as you are wary, I know with my husband when we first met, when i realised i was falling for him i tried my best to push him away because of how i was treated in a previous relationship, the feelings still came regardless of me not wanting them to!!! the fact that he's a persistent honey that we are where we are 2day....married with 3 beautiful monsters!!!!!

I believe (and in my experience) thats its because they not only doubt themselves but also they fear rejection and/or ending up getting their hearts broken again....I use to be like that (I think we all are or have been at some point) but these days, as much as I love to love, be loved and be in love, if my relationships were to end tomorrow I'd move on rather quickly without the whole heart broken thing..

For me I think their is always a proper time for falling in love again. When I think I am ready to commit myself again. When I'am ready to face my actions and to face the consequences I will be in through, even I will get hurt again. Pass is pass! That I've move on! Good night!God bless!

Love brings to the person suffering, but also in it there should be any sense. Cannot be that sincere work and sufferings of loving are deprived any sense! But so it turns out. We know it by the experience. Painful, exhausting run on a circle: emptiness – love – torment – again emptiness and again love. And we are overcome already with unique desire – to hide, leave, be forgotten, not to think. The person who felt pain, feels fear. He is afraid of recurrence of this torment. He does not want love, does not want to get again in its ominous, attracting whirlpool. I was in the same situation and I was afraid to love again. I couldn't trust to any one. It's very hard when you have a broken heart. I was so afraid of that pain that I felt. But time heals, now I know it for sure. Now I'm not afraid to love again.

maybe. i am still in that state. that's why i dont want to fall in love again yet. im kinda scared that i might not love the next one as much as i loved my first boyfriend. im scared that i might not be able to trust another person as i did before. if i am to fall in love, i want to be honestly inlove. and after experiencing what a "broken heart" means, it makes it hard for me to convince myself that i can take another chance. one more thing, im too scared to get hurt again. maybe a lot can relate to this.

A heart that is broken needs time to mend especially if the cut is too deep.
