I do not want to get hurt again!

Or other words...

When someone gets hurt or does something wrong they learn from their mistakes and try not to do the same mistake next time.
It means how much you can learn from a bad experience in the past, so that if the same situation takes place, you can prevent and avoid that pain or frustration by not incurring in the same mistake.
