What is better: The owner of a lonely heart, or a broken heart?
 

Hard choice.

Is it better to be oblivious/unaware to pain, yet not able to enjoy life to it's fullest extent. Or have such great times with that person, it outweights/justifies the future heartbreak.

Owner of a lonely heart
Much better than - a
Owner of a broken heart

I think it is better to be the owner of a broke heart than a lonely heart. It's better to be experianced than it is to be unaware. IMO

My girl and I just broke up about an hour ago. I really don't know what I would pick.

Both suck.

Its better to have loved and lost, then never to have loved at all!

Maybe, but as the other saying goes "you never miss what you never had".

Well I just broke a heart and she broke mine about an hour ago. I would still take it over never have tried to love.

Both statements sum up each opposing arguement nicely. But I am going to have to agree with rdunn. Love is not a necessity, but rather a want. A security blanket if you will. Perhaps that's an underestimate, but when all is said and done - Chemically, love is no more than overindulgence of chocolate.

To not fall deeply in love, does not inhibit you from sustaining and mainting a "fair" relationship. It does not keep you from enjoying what you do in fact have. The life you in do in fact, LIVE. While a broken heart, can leave you in shambles emotionally for years.

It's either aware & sad or oblivious & happy . I think the ladder of the two, as unfortunate as it is, allows you to enjoy life - Regardless of how limited/skewed your perspective is. Worth the sacrifice to be a "sheep" per se.

How about having loved, gained those experiences, including had hearts broken as well as your own...

What would the answer be then?
I think alot more in & about relations than before, a bit more critically simply.

But when it's all good, it's.. :thumbsup

Thank you Loryn, you just saved me a few seconds posting!!!

:)

Loneliness can be just as painful as a heart break.. At least you can enjoy the love for as long as it lasts

Well said> :thumbsup
