How to heal after heartbreak, rebuild self-esteem and approach dating with confidence So you’re divorced. Or separated. Or recovering from the sizeable heartbreak of a serious relationship implosion.
Sure, it was for the best, but try telling that to the small voice muttering “failure” after you close the laptop on your latest binge-watching session in bed.

A lot. No one seems to have good things to say about dating apps , yet they seem to be an almost mandatory single experience. The thought of creating a profile to advertise yourself feels terrifying and maybe ever so slightly exhilarating.
