What Does Hamlet Mean When He Refers To The Pangs Of Disprized Love?

Hamlet perceives love as an emotion that causes loss, devastation and pain. In the play, Hamlet, written by William Shakespeare, the main character uses love as a reason for his actions, but never truly loves any of the characters except his father.
Before Hamlet supposedly made love to Ophelia, Hamlet promised her that he would marry her. Instead, he just ended up mocking and offending her. More precisely, in the play Hamlet falls in love with Ophelia who is told by her father to reject any advances by Hamlet. This hurts and confuses Hamlet and causes him much distress in the play. However when news of his father’s death comes about, and he can no longer spend energy sulking over his unrequited love, Ophelia feels betrayed which ultimately leads to her death.
When Hamlet says “pangs of dispriz’d love”, he refers to the pangs of unrequited love, that is to say love that is not reciprocated and causes emotional pain in the lover. The word ‘pangs’ is a noun and it makes reference to a brief but sharp pain. In that way, the pangs of unrequited love can be considered a heartache, an emotional grief that can be triggered by the rejection of someone loved.Hamlet clearly indicates that the grief of cruel love or love that has finished wrongly is very harmful. Also, the law's setback determines that if people have been handled unjustly, the law doesn't ever act appropriately for them.
