Really really depends on the person you are with. My first boyfriend was my best friend, high school sweetheart, partner and the man of my life. He died when we were 23.
I dated other people after, even got engaged, and never had the same conection. One was too narcisistic so it would make me feel insecure and jealous, another was very calm but very differenr from me so it made me feel lonely and bored sometimes.
It's not the same experience everytime, but having someone say "I love you" and make plans for the weekend is really great
At least you got to experience that connection. Some people never get that. It truly is better to have loved and lost someone. Than not to have loved at all.
Lots of Internet hugs from here. Let's beat loneliness epidemic together.
yes that's how I think too. Better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all
