In terms of romance, feelings shouldn't be forced, you either see people romantically or you don't, sometimes the spark can take time to form, but if it isn't natural then it may not work in the long run. It's okay to just want friendship, and it's okay to want more, the important thing is you let it form naturally and the rest will work itself out!
Breakups can be hard
Takes less than a minute. Keeps 7 Cups free for someone else.
A small contribution goes straight to keeping the community running.

Sometimes when we're trying to get over someone, it can feel like we'll never care about anyone else as much. I've been there before, but I found someone who I care about even more than I thought was possible! After some time and the right circumstances, you will find that it's very possible :)

This question pops up after a very emotional breakup and it is hard to imagine that one could feel love for another being in the same way as the partner with whom you broke up. The key thing to note is that there are plenty of wonderful potential partners out there, each one with their unique strengths and experiences, and you will find that connection you deserve if you take your time and just be open to exploring and receiving love in your life. Just take little steps to heal and open up when the time comes to receiving future partner's love and believe me the strong feeling will return.

With every person you meet, you feel differently towards them. Although the feelings of love or friendship are different depending on the person, it doesn't necessarily mean that the feelings are right to be compared to your relationship with someone else. Every relationship you have is different and thats a good thing, you learn and grow with others and you discover things about yourself.

To be honest, you can't ever feel the same way about someone else. Thoughts and feelings are ever changing. Some times, it will be increasing and some times decreasing. So, it's never the same. With the change in time, interests, understanding, and different other factors, the intensity of feelings change.
So, in case if you not feeling the same way, then not to worry. It's quite natural. It is better to accept the feelings and let it happen the way it is.

No; the truth is you fell for that specific person and so long as there isn't another of them then there is no way you can feel the same way about another person. There's a famous quote that says; there are a lot of different types of love but never the same love twice (I am paraphrasing).
But it is important to understand that you will feel some type of way about someone else; maybe even better than you felt about the other person! You can definitely love again but not the same way.

That's the great thing about humans and love
No you will never feel the same
because everyone is different
But this new love you are going to find won't be any less meaningful
Who knows
maybe the love you will experience in the future will be so different that it will surpass any other love you have felt.
Don't try to feel the same. Accept that the person is gone and that you have an opportunity for an infinite amount of possibilities when it comes to feeling and love.

It will take time and strength. But always remember to let go of the past and give the next person a fair chance to try.

I can feel the same way about someone else by finding what their beauty is that we find attractive about them.

In order to do that, you have to be open minded to the other person. If you still do not feel the same way, you need to let them know that you don't feel the same way they do.

We all feel this way at some point. No two loves are the same. You can make the next one better than the last. It's all up to you!

I have asked myself this question countless times before. After you take time to heal, you will met someone new and you will have the same feelings if not different feelings. You get feelings for someone when you least expect it.

No love is the same, for no person is the same, you might feel more or less for others, but it is all a new experience, and some studies say that you do love again once you let go

No love is the same, you'll love someone else differently, but happily.

You can't. We can never feel the same way towards two different people. There are different kinds of love/like and we associate them with different people.

it will be hard to give the same feelings to someone that you once had with another person. i recommend just easing into another relationship and it will become better and easier to share those same feelings.
