    Hello @maddy2226 and a warm welcome to the community. I'm sorry to read your partner ended your relationship, were you together for long?

    Do you have any hobbies or interests that might make it easier for you to meet people?

    Get a dog, or even better a cat (I have 3 cats and its all cupboard love, whatever).

    A human male is a poor substitute for a devoted loving animal. They really care.
