Well I'm someone who's never loved and idk but I feel like I'd prefer to have loved and lost.
Not an incel btw just inexperienced.

No, being loved is a validation of your worth as a human being that is impossible to replace.

>>14376824
See you barely even care one way or the other

>>14376829
Being loved, sure, but this is "to have loved"

>>14376829
It's not that I don't care, it's that I don't know. I have never experienced true heartbreak so I don't know how bad it is.

>>14376829
Not if you dont really care about the person who loves you. Then they just seem kind of retarded

>>14376818
Well, like all "quotes" it's deliberately vague. You can't appear intelligent if you give specific examples such as:

>She might have murdered me, but at least I got pussy.

Better in what sense? For your well-being, most likely not, but for your intellect, most likely. If you'll indulge a personal anecdote, I had a deeply held fear that I would never find love. So, I got married very young to more or less the first girl that came around. It didn't go very well.

Funny part is though, my fear was probably not incorrect whatsoever. I probably never will find love. It's just, I did learn that isn't such a big deal as I used to think it was.

Depends if you fall out of love with them or they fall out of love with you.

>that isn't such a big deal as I used to think it was
Finding love is a pretty big deal, maybe you've just learned to cope

>>14376818
love is an absolute meme either way. its unironically just chemicals urging you to coom.
>inb4 rick and morty
i say this as a Christian. its very clear in the bible that sex is only for making babies and that in heaven there is no marriage or sex anyway, so there's literally no other point to romance besides breeding. anything else is just coomer cope. if God didn't make us all so horny we would've just died out as a species long ago.

>>14376818
>Someone who's never loved doesn't know what they're missing
Wrong. We all know what love is intuitively whether we have experienced it or not. Plato was right. All learning is remembering this we already know.

>>14379684
sure we know wht it s but not what it feels like

The quote was about his friendship with Hallam. He is saying that it is better to gain from a relationship then stop gaining than to never gain in the first place. Death doesn't remove anything, present or past, just prevents a future. In short, it is better to enjoy a past and present than fear a future.

men aren't allowed to have friendships anymore because its gay, don't you know? you're essentially saying that its better to have been gay than to have never have been gay at all because you learned from the anal penetration.

>Not an incel btw just inexperienced.
You don't get to decide this, incel.

>>14376818
I've loved and lost. I though she was the one. I told her I'll take her hand. It didn't work out. I still dream about her 2 years later. It gets easier but love doesn't go away. It's a permament chemical lock in your brain. If the universe is indeed cyclical, I'm happy.

>>14379830
its definitely better to have never "loved" because then you don't end up as some cuck daydreaming about >her while she's getting fucked by the 49th chad since you broke up. no offense

>>14376818
WTF!? Wojak has EARS!?

>>14379671
>chemicals
Your chemicals are telling you to cope like that, lmao.

>>14379989
no

>>14376818
No. I got rejected and now I fucking hate women.

>>14379890
This

>>14380005
no its pure rationality. the end of a romantic relationship is the bearing of offspring. once we no longer need to multiply as a species, there will be no more romance.

>>14380010
Did you mean to say Yes?

>>14380036
Yes.

>>14380010
For me it was more of the years of niggers telling me women love them more and women telling me they love chad more, how many times a day do you think you see one thread in the same vein of these two ideas on r9k? The answer is above 4 easily, every day, for years.

Source: my ass
I'm sure all couples stop loving each other the moment they have kids, right?

>>14380045
I'm not one of the self-victimizing freaks who goes on r9k so no comment

he's right cause he's referring to true love that is destroyed tragically, not you getting rejected by the girl who you shared one common interest with

>>14376818
>Tis better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all
this is cope, like most poetry

>>14379612
{{Perhaps you have been coping since birth into believing love is such a big deal.

maybe

maybe
maybe huh? Isn't maybe a funny thing. Maybe I'm right. Maybe it means nothing.

>>14379890
what a pathetic way to live your life. keep thinking in dichotomies and see how much you'll enjoy living.

Wait... You HAVE experienced reciprocated unconditional love before haven’t you /lit/? You don’t seriously think you can be a writer WITHOUT that experience do you???
