Have you grieved your previous relationships? Ep 72

Send us Fan Mail Here's a truth most people skip right past: a new love can't find its way in until you've properly grieved the last one. Not just the marriages that ended in loss, but the ones that ended in disappointment, betrayal, or worse. In this episode, Diane makes the case for grief you may not even realize you're carrying. Because if the relationship you had wasn't the one you wanted, there's something real to mourn, and the leftover ache of it quietly keeps the next person at arm's length. Inside, she gets into: Why unfinished grief blocks new love from reaching you, even when you think you're ready. The specific reason so many people rush into something new, and why using a new person to distract from old pain isn't fair to anyone. A hard truth about relationships you can't save on your own, drawn from a woman Diane once watched wrestle with a decision she didn't choose. A separate, tender word for the widows, including how long to give yourself, and what "side by side" means when you're ready to love again. This one is gentle, honest, and a little bracing, the way real talk about grief should be. Then join Diane live: Same Guy, Different Outfit, a free class on Thursday, July 9 at 7 p.m. Central.
