Help Is it possible to find love again after losing your soulmate?

[YourLocalSadGirly]

My girlfriend died I think 6 months ago now. I don't even want to count as it just makes me feel worse. Is it possible to find love again? She was perfect for me in every way I've gone back and forth about the term 'soulmates' and whether or not I believe they exist. I guess I'm closer to believing that they do exist rather than not. She accepted and loved everything about me which feels like something I'll never have again. I've sort of halfheartedly tried meeting people again and going back on hinge but it hasn't really worked out and it feels way too early anyway. I'm just lonely and not dealing with it well. I don't know if I'll ever be ready to love someone again. If you've lost a partner/spouse I'd especially love to hear what you think. Thanks for reading and I hope your day is going well <3.

first off, i'm sorry for your loss. second, yes, it is possible to find love again. i can't speak from personal experience, but i have a close friend who lost her partner of seven years about a little over a year ago from a car accident. i honestly can't imagine how it is to go through something like that. but with a good support circle, they took the time they needed to grieve, and actually started recently started dating another girl i'd been friends with about 4/5 months ago. they've started living together recently and they're both genuinely really good for each other. if there's anything to take from that, it's that you'll be okay. i think grief is the purest form of love, it's okay to feel like you'll never feel the same as you did before, it just means there's still a lot of love left. naturally and with time, i'm sure you'll start to feel more warmer to the idea of dating again. because there will be someone out there who accepts you and loves you for all you are and who will make you feel safe. and that doesn't mean you'll have to lose any of the love you still have for her. the most important thing now is letting time pass, and doing the things you can to take care of yourself. hugz ^^
