2. Said by someone who had a lover waiting in the wings, I think.

3. Probably depends on the pain of the loss.
An amicable parting, though? Sure, that could end up in the plus column.

Not that I would know, though.

7. The losing sucks
Hurts like hell, how do we know that in the losing we lost at our only chance? I love the old Spooky Tooth song "You broke my heart, so, I busted your jaw".

8. I've thought the same myself...

11. Yes, because after that you learn to be a bit more careful about who you give your heart to. :)
Unfortunately not something you can learn without the pain of it happening the first few times.

10. I think a better way of phrasing it would be...
'It's better to have your heart RIPPED out through your ANUS by a someone wearing SPIKED GAUNTLETS than never to have entrusted that heart to someone in the first place.'

16. You just gotta live and learn.
The first part's harder at first, then when you fall for someone else again the second part's the hard part. :)

17. "The first cut is the deepest..." ANOTHER boneheaded saying
I'm like Sam Kinison when he we doing his "New Love" bit:

"This is NEW LOVE! I'm not like the OTHER ones, nooooo. I'm gonna show you a WHOLE NEW LEVEL OF EMOTIONAL PAIN!"

19. In the same spot, with a serrated bread knife sawed back and forth.
Then the wound is washed with pure Isopropanol.

20. You forgot the salt.
Gotta rub salt in it first, THEN wash it out with isopropanol.
