Do you expect everyone to stay single if someone they love has died? Biologically speaking, that’s not how humans are made; we want to have companionship and reproduce. If you personally want to do that, then that is your choice, but it’s not disrespectful if someone moves on years after a loved one dies. Especially when, let’s say for Mac Miller, he was a drug addict and didn’t want to get better, even for love. So she had to move on or he dragged under with him.

life simply goes on. if we halted our existence following the passing of someone, we’re going against human nature. we’re social creatures, we crave intimacy. that doesn’t mean the person that had moved on doesn’t love the one that’s passed any more, it just means they’ve learned how to cope

Well, what do you want them to do? Mourn forever and ever, not be able to move on, and be traumatized for the rest of their lives? Time doesn't stop for anyone and life simply continues. That's just the way it works unfortunately. If we could somehow resurrect him and have them still be together that'd be great! But unfortunately, we can't.

You cannot mourn and be sad forever. You cannot. And humans especially aren’t made that way. Humans do not mate for life. We are made to move from partner to partner even if they die. Is it hard? Yes. It’s very hard. But also consider they broke up already years before he died. Do you just think she’s supposed to be single forever because of the death of a boyfriend she broke up with years ago? It’s not disrespectful. It’s life.

I just got broken up with 13 days ago after 5 months super unexpectedly for no reason other then he needs to work on himself. That night i was really alone because my parents told me he was a good influence on me and my friends weren’t so i had no one. I added this guy on Snapchat that same night and we’ve texted and called every night since. We met 3 days ago and it went really good. We were both nervous but both talked about the next one and how we both had fun. Last night he went to bed without even a goodnight or any talking that whole day but apologized and said goodmorning this morning. Then tonight he randomly sends a paragraph saying he doesn’t think it’s going to work. When i asked why he said “Idk our personalities are just a bit different and idk if I’m really ready to be in a relationship”. It makes sense i guess but I’m really struggling with the fact that my last relationship said that exact same thing and i can’t help but think there has to be something wrong with me. I never cheated or did anything that could’ve upset either of them. I’m 17 and i really feel like i should just stop trying for a relationship but no one is giving me any kind of advice so I’ve just been over thinking all of it. Any past relationship I’ve gotten over by meeting someone new but I don’t know how to “work on myself”. I really think I have a fear of being alone. Please help!

So me and my boyfriend of 5 months broke up and I'm very sad about it, but I'm trying to move on. But it seems like nobody wants me. They either ghost me or we hangout once THAN ghost me. I need someone to date.

Hey, my girlfriend recently broke up with me and immediately got with a guy she had told me not to worry about. For her side of things, she hadn’t admitted to herself that she had feelings for him but then started thinking she was polyamorous since she says she has feelings for both of us. Since I’m not poly, she decided it wasn’t fair to me if she had feelings for this guy. But it really hurts since 1. I have ROCD and was terrified this would happen 2. They were flirting in front of me the other day after she had assured me she didn’t have feelings for him and 3. They had agreed to date before we had broken up, even if they only made it official afterwards. I can’t help wondering if her feelings for me were all a lie until something better came along, and since this was my first relationship it feels like I’m unlovable. Even if she says she broke up with me because she’s questioning her identity, it still feels like I’m just a side character in the love story of someone else more important and worthwhile. My OCD has really latched onto it all because it feels proven right. Any advice?
