Is it possible to love again?

How do you learn to love again after going through the pain and dissapointment of a divorce? Does anyone out there have any tips for moving on? I got divorced 1 month ago (but have been separated for over 1 year) and I feel responsible for the divorce. I can't get past this feeling of guilt and self blame. I want to be happy and move on and eventually fall in love again but I don't seem to be able to find it in me to forgive myself for the things that went wrong with my marriage. Help!

As humans, we have an endless capacity for love. I am hoping to find it after 36 years of abuse. Perhaps get into some counseling for yourself.

Re: Is it possible to love again?

In time love will come. More and more lately I've been finding out that no matter how badly we want something, it won't come until it's supposed to and we're ready for it. You can't force it to happen. Right now it sounds like you need to emotionally heal before you can be there emotionally for someone else.
