How do you know if you are ready for a serious relationship?

I have been single for two years after a difficult breakup and people keep telling me I should start dating again. But I genuinely do not know if I am ready for something serious. What does being emotionally ready for a relationship actually look like?

You are ready when you are not entering a relationship to escape loneliness or fill a void. When someone new sounds genuinely exciting rather than like a solution to a problem. And when you can imagine being okay if it does not work out.

Being ready does not mean being perfectly healed. It means being stable enough that a relationship adds to your life rather than being the foundation of it.
