Dating : How To Know If You’re Ready To Start Dating Again

There’s nothing more responsible than understanding the truth about your heart’s condition. If you experienced a true heartbreak, it could be traumatic. The emotional pain of losing someone you love is equal to physical pain. The body only processes it differently. The body doesn’t feel the pain, but it knows that it’s in pain. They say that time heals every wound. This saying is almost true. I believe time heals all, except the first cut—the deepest of them all.

What seems to happen when we love again is the reopening of that first cut. That’s the reason why we go through so much change after heartbreaks. There’s this need to reinvent yourself. Sometimes we change the people we surround ourselves with for most of the day. Some take it all out in the gym. Gain muscle, booty, abs, or lose excess weight. Regardless of which direction you take, it’s essential to understand that you have this wound that will never heal. We often equate moving on to healing — but they’re two entirely different stages.

You can quickly move on without healing. Have you ever went through a break-up, and that person you were with already moved on to someone else? That’s what I mean; it’s easy to move on; healing takes growth. Growth takes time. But there will come a time when you feel like you’re ready to love again. You feel like you’re fully restored and prepared to share your heart with someone else. However, you’re more secure this time. You’re more defensive. You took so much time to get where you are, and you’ve become wiser.
