"NO PAIN NO GAIN " is a popular saying. Also, I get to hear people say PAIN is a part of life and I can't help but agree with them. This is because in life, there are always two sides to everything: Love and hate; sweet and bitter; happiness and sadness; laughter and tears, etcetera, and we all have to experience both sides of life just so that we can appreciate the positive aspects whenever we experience the negative sides of life and come out unscathed.
Now, the truth is that you'll get hurt either by people or by events, but what you do with the experience is what matters. Now let me use myself as an example, I've been in relationships where I loved with my whole being and I still got hurt, but yet I just tell myself "at least I just learned that I could love this hard; something I never knew I could do before ". So at that point, I just realise that the lesson learnt from that experience is that I could love that well, and when someone else comes, I know I could do more...
Bottom line is, if what hurt you taught you something negative, learn from it and make yourself better! Never allow negative experiences hinder you from going for what's best for you. Remember "when life gives you lemons, make lemonade".
