For about 3 years, I was in the absolute best relationship of my life. He was a beautiful man, emotionally available, supportive, loving....everything I could have ever asked for really. We were talking about marriage. Then quite unexpectedly he passed away from a massive heart attack at the age of 36. That was a little over two years ago. I have grieved the loss of him and accepted his passing for what it is. I'm starting to think about dating again and realize I have no idea how to do that. I've never been someone who has dated after loss so I don't know what to expect of myself. I can't really rely on any of my previous dating experience because I am nowhere near that same person anymore. Anyone have any advice? I think I'm scared of making that first leap and falling flat on my face. Or busting out crying from emotions that get stirred up.
