Only by not being open enough to be receptive of "love" will you be able to protect your-self from a "broken heart"( Tis better to have loved and lost,then to never have loved at all.)Time heals most,and sometimes a nice big break from the possibility of a heartbreak(by working and concentrating on ourselves,bettering our lives,working on self esteem issues etc),is what we need to allow ourselves to gradually heal over time and eventually put our guard down again,all the way down and be vulnerable enough to feel the joy of love again,no matter the outcome,and that is key,there are no guarantees and you must be willing to endure the pain you have come to know so well,from having loved and lost.

Yes. If you have a broken heart due to a let down it is because you have held an expectation of someone to act the way you thought was appropriate for you. That does not make you the wrong or the bad one but you did little to prevent your heart to be broken. By not studying or testing the object of your interest ahead of time and making sure this person was the one you deserved instead of desired, you broke your own heart. People are so not like you or me out there. I am very sorry, for that pain, is a great pain. Now you can say you understand the passion of Christ and start all over, as this is, what it is all about. Remember, LOve is all there is...

There is a way to prevent a broken heart. Do not open it to anybody. But if you did that, then you wouldn't really live and you would never have fun. YOu have to love to be happy. SOmetimes it works out sometimes it doesnt. And when it doesn't it hurts, but the sting goes away eventually. And without pain, love wouldn't be as great. Friends, family, and time can help cure a broken heart. In this case I think a cure is better than prevention.

Yes, there are Steps to help...
A broken heart is a sad thing, but who can prevent it? There are steps to take that will help to improve not having your heart broke. In dating, take things slow and set limits, get to know each other mentally before the physical stuff. This will allow for you to focus on whether the person conforms to what you are looking for in a relationship. Ideally being friends for a while is what I am saying. Once you have the mental connection and everything fits, you can rest a bit easier that this one will work out.
*But, is prevention better than a cure?
With prevention there would be no experience, be it good or bad. There would be no lessons learned.
Focus on the lessons learned your past experiences, and apply them to the present day. Don't be afraid of another broken heart. Life can be hard, but don't give up the experiences in life. For they are what make it worth living. ; )

Well, the cure to a broken heart, is love and forgiveness, but it doesn't have to be romantic love. If you have close friends and family, it can really help a lot. I mean, I make very sure that I myself avoid the mistake of rushing into another relationship just cus I'm hurting and need someone. You need a recovery group of safe people - people who aren't going to dump you.
As far as prevention, there are ways to help prevent a broken. There is no foolproof way to prevent a broken heart no matter what, but you can do some things to try to avoid it. First of all, get to know someone Before you date them - get to know what their family thinks of them. This will sometimes send off warning bells, and you'll realize that the person wouldn't work as your long term partner, and you can avoid of finding that out by dating. Also, date people who are very serious about dating - not people who will lead you on and them dump you. or who think short term, and then realize that you aren't the one for them. They should know who you are before dating, or how can they be serious about it?
If you know about a person's character, they know yours, and they are willing to put down some commitment, and are very serious about the relationship, you are much more likely not to have your heart broken later. If you don't know their weakness, you might find that they are terribly immature, and they will break your heart. If they are a great person, but don't know you and aren't serious about a long term relationship, they are more likely to dump you, and break you heart.
Those are a couple prevention tips that I hope might help.

I understand the metaphor of a broken heart, but I've never "felt" this. So, from my perspective, I can only assume it can't be "prevented," since it's unpredictable & can't be controlled. To truly love & be loved for ANY length of time is wonderful. Quality vs quantity? Maybe. Would the cure be loving again? Not the cure, just inevitable. Same risk? Yes. Worth it? Yes.

One doesn't have to prevent love when it comes to your way... as : ' love bends not when its alteration finds, nor bends with a remover to remove' (I've read that from a poem 15 yrs ago)... so prevention doesn't guarantee immunity or resistance to a broken heart... for if you really love someone, try as you may to avoid that person nor deny the feeling to yourself, at the end of the day, you've broken your heart more than anything or anyone could have...
the prevention for a broken love is giving unconditional love, having unwavering faith to the feeling you both have and share, and showing insurmountable trust and unparalleled respect for each other... for only through these 4 things that you could withstand every challenges (even storms) that would cross your relationship. Without or lacking in any one of these 4, you never really loved, or that the relationship is doomed to fail.
Therefore to prevent going through a broken heart is not to run away from love itself; and it is not simply to give love, but to show trust, respect, and faith in one another. That is the best way to prevent a broken heart... learn the art of really loving with your heart and the whole of you.

In the case of broken heart, prevention means being independent and self-sufficient, and cure means sticking to the same person but redefining the terms that describes love. It is much difficult to redefine the terms since we must change our perspective of what love is.
However, since people change and relationships evolve, we must be more open to the idea of curing our hearts and relationships than having an idealistic notion that love must be perfect.
The possibility of another broken heart always exists as long as we remain willing to love. The cure is having the flexibility to adjust. In the case of love, cure is better than prevention since preventing a broken heart could result in seclusion.

There's no way to prevent a broken heart and everyone should experience it at least once if for no other reason than to be able to have some empathy for someone else with one.
If you go the prevention route though and avoid situations that could possibly lead to one, then before you know it you're old and alone and are guilty of depriving yourself and at least one other person in this world of a kick @ss time!
It's every individual's choice though. I'm glad you decided to keep asking questions.
Smile :)
