Relationship expert talks about moving on after a partner's death
Speaking exclusively to Briefly News about finding love again after a partner's death, relationship expert and founder of Engaged Humans, Paula Quinsee said:
"Getting out into the dating scene again can feel awkward and people can even feel some level of guilt in the process so it’s important to find a balance between honouring your past relationship while being open to new connections.
"It’s important to acknowledge you had a past and that you shared a life with someone that has both positive memories and potentially lessons learned too. This can also help you identify what you want in future relationships.
"While it’s good to acknowledge your past, it’s also important to create clear boundaries regarding how you remember your past partner and that it doesn't encroach on and impact any new relationships."
