As a poet, I've had my heart broken several times and each time it has taken a year or more to heal. I've been seriously hurt but yet somehow, I've always managed to get back on that horse. I've found it far better for bonding where that person does come along.
Dating is never easy.We have to go through so many wrongs to get to the right....
Courage is falling off the horse and getting back on anyway.
Good for you for giving it another try!
