Hi,

I hope life is treating you well!

I am 34 M currently based out of Delhi. It’s been 4 years since i lost my gf to Covid but somehow i still feel that i haven’t been able to move on. I was with her for the last 8 years.

I speak to girls sometimes hoping i’ll be able to find someone that i feel like getting a bit vulnerable with but after a while the old memories kick in and then i stop talking. It often feels like i’ll never be able to love someone like i did which wouldn’t be fair to the other person. A friend suggested that i shouldn’t seek something substantial and start with something casual or FWB sort of relationship so i don’t feel uncomfortable. Do you think she is correct? Perhaps she is but i don’t even know how approach a girl and ask her to just be in some casual arrangement. I have always been an old school and one woman guy so it does feel a bit odd tbh.

Thoughts/suggestions on what should i do?
