I am not good at telling one how to move on, because I myself feel very confused about my xhusband and certain feelings that are not healed.

But I do think healing first comes with acceptance that the relationship is over. Grief can be complicated. If you know in your heart that you wont miss your x if you found someone knew you would may be ready. If you miss your x or grief your x in romantic ways I would believe you need healing first.

Maybe talking things out with your x would help, if he is willing to talk?

Meeting someone new is sometimes difficult when not having many social opportunities, I can relate to that.

I believe that when or if you meet someone it will all come naturally and that if you are really ready to meet someone you will know it in your heart.

I am sorry you two are not in touch anymore. I hope you will find way to move on. I can understand how you miss talking to her.

If you are ready to find new love, that is great. It means at least you are not grieving her romantically or have heartache over her in that way. Maybe a new love will make you able to overcome some of the sadness you feel. I hope and wish for you the best.
Thanks for this!
