"Tis better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all" is false.

Why go through marriage and then find out that she cheated on you during the marriage and now wants to leave you?

Why go through with the pain of losing someone's love in the end?

Love takes you to the highest of highs and when it dies, it takes you to the lowest of lows. I can understand why men commit suicide when they break up.

I've been there before, and I fear ever being there again. Do yourself a favor young guys and don't chase after it. You don't know what you want, because love doesn't last, and when it dies, it can leave you broken.

Edit: I have a sense that the majority of women would say an emphatic yes to finding it better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all.
