After a long term relationship or a long term marriage ended, was it hard for you to start over new with someone else?

Like you feel like you are starting over from scratch pretty much. because you were so used to being with your ex for so long , like that’s all you knew , but now you are starting over. With meeting people and dating , and experiencing a whole new atmosphere pretty much , that you aren’t really use to. Was it easy for you to transition into this new experience with someone else , and putting your past with your ex behind you? I feel like I am ready to meet someone else so I been open to dating again , part of me asks myself do I really want to do this all over again with someone new? . The other part of me wants to meet someone better than my ex , but the whole thought of starting over isn’t really sitting with me well , especially when I think about all the things that happen or can happen in a relationship. I know I want to experience true love , and want to fall in love , but after being tied down to my ex for so long , I still feel kind of lost and confused on what I really want to do. I been meeting nice girls’ but I am not rushing into anything because I want to be able to give myself 100 percent to my next partner , with dating I don’t have to give 100 percent because I am just getting to know them. I don’t know , was it easy for You to transition into someone new after your long term relationship or marriage ended?

I have a similar problem I had problems in my life stopping me from dating so its hard to get back into the swing of it.

I got divorced because my ex openly cheated. Was very hard to trust someone again.
