I do not have any personal experiences, but I do think that it is better to have known something and than to ultimately lose it later, such as feeling the pain of losing a pet or the pain of breaking up with a boyfriend or girlfriend.
The reason for my opinion is that no matter how deep wounds are, they will ultimately heal sooner or later. No matter how great the pain in our hearts is, we must still get over the pain. We must put the incident behind us, and get on with our lives.
For example, if you own a pet, and the emotional bond between you and your pet is so strong. Suddenly one day, your pet runs onto the road and gets run over a car. You are shocked. You cry. You wail. You hold it in your arms. You recall all the fond memories you had with the pet. You berate heaven. But in the end you still have to get up, dust yourself down, and just forget it. Even better, you can also advise your friends on having a pet as you personally already know the pain and therefore can tell your friends on your personal experience, so as to prevent your friend from going through the same pain that you did.
Ultimately losing something you have known also acts as a learning experience as you will have known what you have done wrong and what you should have done. If you have done wrong, you can take measures to do right the next time. If there is the pain of losing something, you can then take steps to ensure that there is none, or less pain the next time round.
Therefore I think it is better to know something and to ultimately lose it later.
