Sarah, in my personal experience, if a person is someone you like, someone who's interesting or enigmatic, someone you feel drawn to, then it's always worth it. Because you're always going to get hurt somehow. Someone leaves or moves away, someone dies or gets injured. It's the human condition that we get attached and get hurt by our emotions for people. I've tried to escape it and it turned me into a hard-hearted bastard. I still have a bit of that left, actually, and I don't like it.
You only have one life, Sarah. And you should make the most of it, get to know as many people as you can. Connect. Pain is just another way of knowing you're still alive.
