I can't speak for meatball, but IMO it is always better to have tried and failed then to have never tried. I apply it to everything because we don't really learn from our successes nearly as much as our failures. I guess it depends on your perspective but I've always seen longing for something without action is far more detrimental than trying something you've always wanted and failing, especially with something as integral, rewarding and foundational to the human condition as relationships.
"There ought to be a term that would designate those who actually follow the teachings of Jesus, since the word 'Christian' has been largely divorced from those teachings, and so polluted by fundamentalists that it has come to connote their polar opposite: intolerance, vindictive hatred, and bigotry." -- Philip Stater, Huffington Post
