(I guess i'll go first for a change)
Sean:
Someone once said tis better to have loved and lost than to never have experienced love at all. A friend begged to differ, paraphrased and related this quote and school of thought to material things, stating: its better to have never had money than to have been rich and then go broke.
I'm not sure to which belief I subscribe yet. But in matters of the heart I may have to disagree with ol' Billy S. (William Shakespeare) After knowing a love like I experienced, if I cannot get back to that level of happiness I would have preferred never to have known that it existed. You don't miss that which you never had. How could one go from such an exquisite high to bland existence?
Love is a vixen, a temptress and Carl Thomas said it best I wish I never met her at all!
damn, babe.... I guess i have to wait for you to finish this one so I can offer an appropriate response.. the last line stung a bit though... but this is what I was working on the last time I came on with regard to this topic:
Simplicity:
...then to have not loved at all?"

Some things are simply uncontrollable. I would sit here and say that in my personal experience, to love and lose is the worst pain of all because if you have never loved then you really don't have a specific feeling to miss.
But, my mind is conflicted simply because I can't imagine my life without knowing love
especially not knowing his.
See it's a feeling I'd surely miss or feel incomplete without.
The lack of it in my life creates a void that if I knew nothing of would be the equivalent of insufficient.
If I never knew love then my life wouldn't be considered anything but adequate and I'd prefer extraordinary if at all possible.
I honestly couldn't say I'd accept never loving at all over loving and losing, because once you've loved, a twinge of hope exists inside that you someday will meet love again. Maybe I'm a massachist but I imagine a day when that love that I've found will coexist with it's
counterpart in me.
I miss you, but I would never wish to have never met you at all.
