Loved & lost & now entering a new relationship?
It was great chatting first thing this morning to Angela and Spence at Heart FM radio North West and Wales about the aftermath of holiday romances. A lot people are returning from August vacations and things are very different when she back home.
Time to face the real work together when you've been living in the lovely ideal holiday situation. Good luck!
Now, have you loved and lost someone? I can't imagine what it's like to be bereaved especially when you're in the prime of your life. One woman got in touch with me at my Love Clinic on iVillage UK about her husband's passing away 18 months ago.
She's just re-connected with an old work colleague and romance is on the cards... Her big worry? She's very anxious about having sex with someone else. No surprises there - I'm sure this is an automatic response.
TODAY’S TIP: As an agony aunt I have to imagine what this must be like of course I've heard countless stories of getting into relationship after bereavement. Each one is different though, and each one brings different concerns.
My one piece of advice is always to slow it down if it's making you anxious. Anxiety in the sense is like your intuition. If it's building it probably means things are either going too fast or you simply need to have the conversation.
What's worse - rising anxiety or actually having a conversation? I know I'd rather clear the air and make your worries known.
If you're in this situation good luck with letting that the person know how you're feeling deep inside.
Happy Tuesday, Pamx
