Don’t force it. Don’t go running into relationships trying to find love after one was ruined. If you set a goal  to find your better half, you’re not going to make it. The thing I did after being tangled in a 3.5 year relationship was as messy as the whole relationship. I searched for a substitute, someone who can get in his place. That was the wrong thing to do , because it never felt right.  I was doing it because I could,not because I wanted to. That is not how you grow and develop, you have to let go. Let go of that mindset that you HAVE to be with someone and great things will come. Someone will walk into your life unexpectedly but just at the right time. That someone will feel like a sunrise,like a first breeze after a harsh winter.And most importantly, you will be ready to greet love with open arms and heart.
