A broken heart should be taken seriously. When we break up with a partner, we can feel a sense of loss that in many cases is almost devastating. That's when it's tempting to put a Band-Aid on the wound in the form of a new romance. And in certain situations there is nothing wrong with this, but in this way we can jeopardize the new relationship. If we have not yet gotten over our ex-love, it may happen that after the initial butterflies we start comparing the new partner with the previous one. In life, we must also be able to take time for tears and mourning.
