I don't know how to answer this seeing as I never really look for someone, I just let things happen and see how it all works out.
Well of course I would, sitting around moping wouldn't make anything better. Too be honest i'd probably just be hooking up at first, but if I really liked the girl and there was chemistry of course I would give it a shot.Souplex said:
I'd like to think I be a good tragic hero and remain single for the rest of my days, but I probably would find someone. I suppose it depends on my age. If I'm the other side of 50, most likely I'll just give up.
Well unless I decided to pull an Oedipus and blind myself after the tragedy had been revealed to me, then...yes, I suppose I would see other people.Souplex said:
Oh you meant date. Right. Uh, well I can't really say because it hasn't happened to me yet. I would think at a guess it would primarily depend on how old I was when such a thing happened. As I moved from young adult to middle age, probably not, but then in my closing years, maybe?
Really, unless such a thing has happened to you before, are you in a position to comment? The human mind does crazy things when put under the stress of losing a loved one that close. There's no telling how you'd react.
You might go on a killing spree, ending in the taking of your own life. Not exactly recommended, but stranger things have happened.
Yeah but let's be honest here, we'd all be surprised if there was one girl who could stand me, let alone two.
I loved my ex-fiance (J). Still do. And not like how I still love most every girl I loved before nor my ex-wife. I was more in love with her (J) than I thought possible. So much so that she (J) still haunts my life. And no she (J) did not die, she (J) just betrayed me like no other ever could. Yet even still, yes I do love her (J).
My ex (C) knew I still loved her (J) and knew she (C) was basicly competing for my love, even though there was no chance in Hell of me ever returning to her (J). My ex (C) did not succeed, nor did she (C) really even try.
My fiance (N) now knows my ex-fiance (J) will always hold a piece of my heart, just as she (N) knows she (N) holds a piece of it, the piece still alive and beating, just for her (N). She (N) knew from the beginning she'd (N) be in a competition and she's (N) succeeded in winning. Winning my heart. Fully.
If the person you love dies, they will always be with you. And if someone comes along who loves you, they will realize that person will always be a part of you and they have to "compete" for your love. Do what they must, not to make you forget, but to make you feel your love again. They may never know the love form you that your original soulmate had, but if they love you they should be happy not only for what they get, but for bringing happiness back into your life.
How long till it's okay for you to move on? If you truly know love, then you never move on. But hopefully you will meet that someone special who helps make you feel alive again.
If you don't know love, or just don't care, then it doesn't matter. Just depends on the person. Hopefully you'll wait till the body is at least buried first, out of respect.
edit- added letters to represent the three ladies in my life and to hopefully clear up any confusion

Yes, I would still see people...my eyes are still intact.
Wait...oh!
[sup]Dammit! Ninja'd to the bad joke![/sup]
Okay...Um...I don't know...I only met the girl I've had because she asked me out...I don't pick up on that kind of thing easily, so...yeah, I have no clue.

Exactly four months and six days after the fact.
Seriously, nobody can answer a question like that until it happens.
