When your heart feels its time to LOVE again

I have had so many people talk to me about what I should and shouldn't do since I have been separated, and in truth so many of them are right but only my heart will be able to tell me when I am ready to love again. It has been just 3 months since I have been in the world as a newly single woman and I have seen so much in this time. I truly feel happy with the path I have chosen. The world is just starting to get to know Mia Horne again so I know I am not ready to change that.

I can truly say that I am ready for the dating world but not to fall in love again, but I would not fight it if it happened with the right person. He would have to take all my quirks and know that I love him but still need my own life and some freedoms and I would give him the same. I have no other major criteria for what I want in a relationship other than to not feel like I have to answer to every move I make and everywhere I go.
I know after being married for 14 years I should have a long lists of things I want and don't want but to me that is asking a lot of a person. I just want to know that I am loved for me and not who he would want me to be.

I have a good friend who is always telling me to go into things without getting attached but frankly I live by my heart so I know I will fall in and out of LOVE about 50 more times probably before I find the one. LOL I know Dwayne I can't help it this is just who I am!! However, I know that there are so many different degrees to LOVE and so many different ways to love someone so I say this all jokingly and with a sense of knowing I might get hurt again along the way but that's ok. It all a part of life and living it fully.

So I guess what I was trying to say today is life can be about LOVE and that is good for me but my heart tells me to stop hiding and get back out there and meet the world.
