I doubt there is a general answer to that question.

1. Beginning a new life would be the best if all of your past relations are gone. If you have never experienced any good in life. Then losing your memory and start a new one would be the best. But then again. There is no guarantee your new life might be better than before. It could be a lot worse depending on the new people involved. New doesn't mean better after all.

2. But if you have lived a terrible life. But still feel some kindness from others from time to time. Then these small happy moments can have a big influence on your life which you would regret forgetting.

3. A bad and terrible situation depends on the individual. Some people try to forget their past and move on, some embrace their past and try to live with what happened to them and try to inspire others who have ended up in similar situations and others gets engulfed in their past and end up becoming like the people who hurt them and begin hurting others.

Haise Sasaki/Ken Kaneki it's not like he wanted to forget his friends from the former Anteiku and start this new life. He still don't know what happened to some of his friends. Like Hide, Kaya, Enji or Yoshimura and he only vaguely remembers Hinami, Nishiki, Touka or even Shuu. His life seems to be connected to the second.
