A good friend of mine asked me for advice about moving on and dating again for her friend who is going through a divorce...
My advice...
- take your time
- don't rush into trying to find "love" again
- be patient
- be open
- it's important to piece your heart back together before you allow yourself to let someone in again
- don't settle....you're allowed to be "picky"...look for those red flags when dating
- always follow your heart, even if your head tells you something different...trust your instincts
- only that person will know when he/she is ready to date again

How are you supposed to move forward, if everyone keeps telling you that they think you are or aren't "ready"?
You may never be "ready" if everyone continues to tell you when they think you will be. This only reminds you of your past failed relationship.
This can hold you back from moving on with your life.
There is no time frame to heal a broken heart.
It amazes me that some people think they know other people better than they know themselves.
Of course, moving on with your life after heartbreak takes time, but everyone heals differently.
Don't judge.
Don't assume.
Be open to letting that person heal, learn and grow from their experience.
