Bitter Love Quotes - The Bitter Taste of Lost Love

So your loved one has gone and you've been left with a bitter feeling in your heart. Believe or not, I encourage you to nurse this feeling because buried beneath it is the hurt, which you will eventually choose to heal. For now, read the quotations below and commiserate with them, which I hope will make you feel a little better. These quotations indicate that you're not alone—everyone who has made it to adulthood has suffered the loss of love and some level of betrayal.

So read them and let yourself have your feelings. Hit a pillow and scream out loud. If that's not enough, read our mean love quotes. Although this is good therapy because you are being honest about how you feel, don't let angry thoughts consume you or dictate your actions.

Love never dies a natural death.
It dies because we don't know how
to replenish its source. It dies of
blindness and errors and betrayals.
It dies of illness and wounds; it dies
of weariness, of withering, of tarnishing.

~ Anais Nin
