at random times i hate myself for looking back on the past, and wishing that things had worked out. things always looks better when reflecting on them, because you always look back on the good vs. the bad

I suppose that knowing love and knowing that love is possible is better than never knowing love at all. It goes without saying that when someone has their heart broken they change and sometimes they pick up emotional baggage and are possibly never the same after that, but having your heart broken may be less painful then never knowing love at all. To be numb or pretend to be numb to love- it’s almost like a form of self protection but I believe that we end up hurting ourselves more by using this front. Love is a common emotion to most human beings in one way or another and if someone never experienced love they would be disadvantaged in a way- they wouldn’t be able to relate or understand other people’s feelings. Even if love doesn’t work out - you are aware of how it made you feel and you can connect or relate to other people. If a relationship doesn’t work out, perhaps we just have to hope that someday someone more perfectly suited to us will come along and provide us with infinitely more love then we ever experienced before.

I think the general idea is that now that you've felt love you want to experience it again, right? But you're afraid of getting hurt (again).

But, its a bit nerve racking. Did you immediately fall in love with Patrick(?) when you first started going out? I doubt it. It takes some time, understandably. I think its better to start out with a hope that you might love said guy, and see whether it develops. If it doesn't you part ways. In my humble (admittedly scarce) experience that time being in love is well worth any heartbreak that may follow.

I think you just have to relax and give love a chance to come to you, as incredibly cheesy as that may sound.
