Q re: the 18-month NC rule?
Wondering why it has to be 18 months of NC, no dating of others, etc.? Isn't the fastest way to get over a broken heart is to have feelings for another? The longer you're out of the dating world, the more gunshy one may be about entering that arena again.
I'm not suggesting we jump into a relationship for the sake of jumping into a relationship, but why not be open to it should it come along? Why preclude ourselves from the dating population for 18-months?
Since we have been emotionally damaged, aren't we actually more adept and wiser when it comes to potential red flags in the next relationship? Wouldn't we have a better idea of what to look for?
My point is why give the N more power by putting our lives on hold for 18-months. Has the N not taken enough of our life from us?
