Most people use this phrase when talking about dating or approaching a girl or asking her out, which is perfectly valid. I personally applied this when asking out my crush. I got rejected but that was far better than regretting it and never knowing what she would've said.
But this myTake isn't even about asking someone out. In this case, it's more about telling people you love them. I had a really good relationship with my crush mentioned above. We worked together for about a year and a half and we parted ways when we stopped working together 2 years ago and i haven't seen her since. So yes, i do love her very much, but i never told her that. Mainly out of fear that she wouldn't say it back, though she did once give me "tough love" in her words, which is close enough for me.
About a year ago, i sent her a short email with an update on my life, she responded and that was that. I still didn't say i love her. Another year later, i'm writing her another email, and it will probably be the last one i send her. This one is longer and this time i'm gonna tell her i love her. I'm not too fussed about her reciprocating because i think it's the last chance i'll get. Wish me luck!
In this case, rejection in form of no reciprocating will be far better than regretting never telling her i love her.
Thanks for reading.

YOu know, the one thing you figured out what our genuineness... what we really think as well as makes us vulnerable and could put the girl in an uncomfortable situation. But, the beginning of what could be a profound love and relationship. Let us know how it went?
That's debatable, but I get what you're saying.
