Poll question: Was J. Geils right?
You know the words...

You love her, but she loves him.
And he loves somebody else... you just can't win.



Also, better to have loved and lost?

1. No.
No, J. Geils wasn't right.

And it is indeed better to have loved and lost. If you never experience love, then life is...incomplete.

In my very humble opinion.

5. I don't know about J. Geils...
but Tennyson was talking about friendship, not romantic love.

When it comes to romantic love, I kind of think Plato was right: 'love is a grave mental disease.'

6. Is that so?
Well that certainly explains a hell of a lot! Thank you!

I don't know if I'd call it a mental disease... but... it certainly can be torturous.
