Will I be able to fall in love again after a devastating breakup?

I feel so cold and alone, will I ever get to be held and loved on again? I've been so sad and the heartbreak from my breakup still feels so fresh and strong. It's suffocating and lonely. I know that I probably should be alone for a long time before trying to put myself out there again. But, I feel so broken and lonely. I have so much love inside of me that I don't know what to do with.

I was single for a long time (5 years) after my first serious relationship and it took me over 4 years to feel like a complete person without him in my life. You absolutely can and will heal and love again and I understand how crushing this period feels and how tempting it is to try to rush into something else to try to fill that void.

But if you do that you won't be doing it for the right reasons, and you certainly won't be able to give all of your true authentic self to whoever your new partner ends up being.

Yes you will be able to love again. There will come a time when you aren't thinking about your ex anymore, and a time where you'll be able to think of them again, maybe appreciate the things they taught you about love, and it won't hurt anymore. It'll take time and I know it hurts like hell now but you can and will get there.
