After a break up or lost relationship, I think you’re ready to date again…when you don’t need to date again.
When pain pushes you toward a new relationship or when loneliness pulls you towards one, in my experience, you’re in trouble. Neither of those emotions helps you be objective about the quality of a new relationship…or its impact on children. Trust in God as your provider and partner. Take time to heal. When you can be content you’ll be in a much better place to make good choices about new love.
