Hello my sweeties. I need someone to shed some light on this for me, please. Me and my mom had a very interesting discussion yesterday, and for the life of me i cannot answer this myself. Would you rather get hurt by a loved one or rather feel no love at all. We all need to love, be loved and if you get hurt, so what. We have to go through this. My mom believe that when you are in love and loved by someone, you are not suppose to get hurt. Right or wrong? TATA.

hi,Love is always painfull , how can anyone not feel hurt when its realling hurting.Either u take it not serious of that person when u dont feel hurt while leaving him or her.I dont know how ur mom says so.may be she says true love for someone would never ask anything in return.And when nothing is expected then how come u feel hurt.

I feel that in order for one to know love, one must at least be hurt once. That's why they say first true love almost won't end up being together forever. That's my personal take on this. Although no one would ever want to be hurt in any way, I believe that it is good to have some form of experience in this area. I'm a no pro, but this is what I think. However, there are some people whom won't want to be hurt at all, so it's each other prerogative. Good topic, Saph. By the way, I'll be catching up on my email follow up soon, that's because my email is currently not working; ugh...hotmail's acting up again.

@saphrina- that is a very mature question. I believe getbiswa is the right person who can give you excellent advise on this one. My thoughts - All feelings, love, hate, desire, whatever are transitory. So sit and analyze a way around hurt so that you hurt less, or love less. We are, after all, made chemical bonds, and so are our thoughts. A change of scene always helps because of this. :)

once upon a time, i did have belief in it. it really felt right. there was no way anything could separate us. even if we drifted apart, we always came back together. that last time we were together, it was the most happiest 3 consecutive years of my life... well, suffice to say that her parents married her off to the son of a richer, more influential man. and she's just recently had a son. it hurts. i try to forget, but it hurts terribly to even try.. i'm forcing myself to accept and move on. i think i have moved on. but during those quiet moments of the day, memories come back. and it hurts. i don't know if i'm supposed to get hurt. i don't know if i'll never be hurt again. but i'm sure that i don't want to love someone that much anymore. because it hurts too much..

they say tis better to have loved and lost.. blahblah. i agree with you that if a person loves you, they dont hurt you. sometimes feelings get hurt inadvertantly tho, and that just happens. in any relationship, not just romantic. if however there is more pain than love? no.. thats not reasonable... but pain is a part of life.

I have yet to meet a married couple that has not hurt each other to some degree. However, I am not one to roll the dice on a spouse. Doesn't seem like a worth while risk to me. On the off chance you might have a good marriage, you risk divorce, infidelity, fights, bitterness, and a living hell on Earth. Doesn't seem like a good trade. Think I'll stay single :)

Hi, I think she is absolutely right. She has a definition of love which is not often understood or implemented by most of us. She is talking about an ideal love, a love beyond all expectations and desire. This has a more philanthropic aspects. Very few people actually admire this concept, as our material love is usually based on desire. But those who can see clearly beyond such trivial forms of love, is a very precious person. Love doesn't let you get hurt. On the contrary true love should make you invincible. Thanks God bless you

My angel, I'm afraid your mom don't have much thing to consider as of these days. During their days maybe her thought is just right because man/woman were just as faithful and seems innocent of all these matters in life. In our days though,it seems doesn't work well with that statement. When you are in love and loved by someone, we have to face the facts that pain would be there and you will surely get hurt for many reasons.Love sometimes cause pain and it can't hide the real meaning that love and pain always together. If you felt in love and been loved we need to be ready for pain and hurt cause by our emotions and by our love one,intentional or not still make sense when love is involved. Theres a saying with I can say its quiet real." LOVE is like heaven but it hurts like hell".

Since being in love and being loved is a part of life,better not to expect more than they can give you in return.Love unconditionally and accept what love brought for its really mean for us to feel the pain no matter how we avoid to get hurt.

I am 24 years old and I never had a boyfriend so I think I am still pretty idealistic when it comes to love.I think that your Mom is correct on this one.Like why would someone who loves you, hurt you?Coz how can you make a person loved if you keep on hurting that person?That's all I could say.Do not take this seriously though.As what I said, I never had a boyfriend so you probably have more experience than me in this thing called love.

I think it's not true that when you are in love and loved by someone you will not get hurt because when you really love someone you will do everything for him to become happy despite of consequences ! so when you get used into a relationship you should make your self ready to the consequences it will have. That's love . It's like after the rain there's a rainbow on it!

I think i would rather get hurt by someone I loved rather than love at all. Having love is a special feeling and yea sometimes it hurts but in the end it is better to love. There are times when my boyfriend inadvertently hurts me and vise versa, we say something or does something that accidently hurt each other, but we both also know we would never do it on purpose and almsot immediately apologize.

Hi sweetie. Somehow i feel the same way. I can love unconditionally, but always seem to get hurt. But loving someone is a great feeling though. Words that have hurt sometimes lingers, as we cannot forget them even if we aplogised for them.

oh I do not believe when you feel love, you will never feel pain. When you are hurt by love it only means you grow in love. Love is not always to feel happiness, it has to be equal. In that way you evolve you can be weak or you can be strong. The faith in love is this, the person that you love is the one that will hurt you too. life without being hurt is lifeless, being hurt taught you to decide what mistake you made and you will never do it again. There are no people who do not feel pain.

I have always insisted an opinion is that life without love is incomplete,or in other words is that life had not experienced love is incomplete.We cannot foresee whether the love we own will hurt us or not,but it is commonly that life full of happy and sad.We need love,whether we had experienced hurt or not.we can't lose the faith to love.If unfortunately we get hurt from our choice,it's OK, because we didn't lose love,we just lose a person who didn't know how to cherish the pure love.We still have the confidence to find the real destined love of us.

Love is sweet and tenderness. People in love is like in wonderland. Everything in life is wonderful. But don't get so excited about that. All is not stay forever. We just only a human being. Sooner we will face in something we can't do anything except getting hurt. The hurt may be is the best solution for that relationship to let to be.

I feel that no matter how hard you try everyone hurts someone sometimes. There's intentional and unintentional hurt. I know there's been times when I've said something and didn't think about it enough and I ended up hurting the one that I love. I didn't meant to hurt him and when I realized I did I felt terrible but then there's other times when you are angry with someone and you go out of your way to hurt them and make them feel the way that they made you feel. or for someone to feel the pain that you feel. It's not right but I feel like it's a part of life!

Hi sweetie. I sometimes don't think before i say things. Normally that which pop into my mind i will voice, hurting people close to me. If one is use to get hurt, its like its rubbing of on us, then we start hurting others intentionally. Maybe one day we will know the difference, not to do that anymore. Anger, can make one say the most hurtful things, the bad part of it, people don't forget those words.
