Speaking exclusively to Briefly News, relationship expert and founder of Engaged Humans, Paula Quinsee said there is no specific timeline used for people who lose loved ones to move on. She also listed a few steps to take after losing a partner.
"Allow yourself to feel your grief - recognise and accept your emotions without judgment and understand that it’s a process and it takes time.
"Surround yourself with support by reaching out to friends, family, or a professional who can provide emotional support and guidance during this challenging time.
"Create a daily routine to bring some form of structure and stability to your life, this can help to bring some form of normality to your life and help you process your emotions better."
Briefly News also spoke to The Relationship Architect and couple counsellor, coach and author of Uncomplicated Love, Shelly Lewin about how one can navigate the guilt or fear of moving on while still honouring the memory of their late partner. She said:
"It’s natural to feel guilt or fear when considering moving on. A helpful approach is to understand that healing and honouring can coexist. Moving forward with your life doesn’t mean you’re forgetting your late partner; it’s a testament to the love you shared. Embrace the "both/and" mindset: You can both grieve and rebuild your life. You can love someone new while still cherishing your late partner's memory."
