Girls who have had their heart broken tend to love a little differently than girls who have never gone through that kind of pain. I'm sure it's the same for guys, too. After your heart has been broken, it's so hard to trust anyone again. You're so afraid to let yourself love. You have every reason in the world to try again, though – everyone deserves love, after all. It's just that you have a different way of falling in love after you've been heartbroken.
After your heart breaks, you know how very important it is to be careful with it, especially when you're ready to give love another shot.
This time around, you know the value of taking things slow when it comes to your emotions and revealing your feelings.
No matter why your last relationship ended, it probably taught you something about what you want in a partner.
More importantly, you have a better idea about what you won't put up with and what you don't want in your life.
You might even feel downright distrustful for a while, and a healthy dose of cynicism definitely isn't unheard of after you experience a broken heart.
You don't really care about meeting someone rich or ridiculously handsome. You realize what you really deserve.
After a painful breakup, it's common to realize that certain traits, especially shallow or materialistic ones, aren't as important as finding someone kind, respectful, and loving.
Maybe your last partner cheated on you, abused you, or simply wasn't there for you – as you move forward, though, you can use what you learned and saw in your last relationship to benefit your future relationships.
You know the risks, you know how much it hurts when things don't work out, and you just don't want to let yourself fall too quickly – you want to make sure you know it's real.
You're so afraid of getting hurt, it's natural for you to want to make sure that you're really in love and that your new partner honestly loves you, too.
More than anything, you know just what it takes to make a relationship work.
You won't make the same mistakes twice and you won't spend time with anyone who exhibits the same traits as the person who broke your heart.
It's natural to feel suspicious when you start dating again, but even as you watch for warning signs, remember that you can't treat a new person based on your ex's behavior.
You don't want to get burned again, and besides, trust needs to be earned.
You're more careful with your heart, but at the same time, you now know that you can get through anything.
You know that people are allowed to fall in love more than once, and you know that someone new won't be like your ex.
You made it through the fire, you got through the pain, and you came out stronger in the end – that's amazing.
How did you get back into dating after having your heart broken? How did it affect you?
