Would you consider looking for another relationship?
The loyal and moral side of me say no. But I realize how lonely and romantically/sexually in-fulfilling it'd be for the rest of my life, so I'm very tempted to say yes.

Yes and no.
I probably wouldn't try. But then it might happen.

I'd feel guilty if I tried to look for another relationship, but at the same time I feel like it'd be inevitable.

If you said yes, then you have never loved.
And what Kitae said.
Edit:
And Skye.

I wouldn't actively go looking for a relationship, but sometimes it just happens. And if it does I won't reject it.

I wouldn't actively pursue a relationship and I've always been the type to chase guys and I don't see it as something I'll ever grow out of. It's just a part of my personality
everytime a guy from school would show interest in me, whether or not I found him physically attractive, I'd just pull away. I like the chase and I become repelled if someone's interested in me first :(
might sound a bit kiddish but I also like being able to say I've only ever dated or been with one person, and I'd like to keep it that way. Just a personal preference
I told my s.o. if I die early he can find someone else, I don't mind, but if we have babies by the time I've passed I don't want him having children with anyone else
but if we don't have kids when I pass, it's okay for him to make a family of his own
Maybe it's a little unfair but if he already has kids I don't want him starting a new family. He's ok with it though

I won't go on the prowl looking for a woman, but if it happens I'll go with it.

I dunno. Sometimes you just have to go on.

If we were soul-mates it would be extremely hard to get over. It would take me many years before I get over [S]Em[/S] them. A part of me would always belong with them, and I just don't think it would be the same, ya know? Might go out and have fun but probably never settle down with someone.

I really can't see it happening, but then again, I'm no fortune teller.
I feel like I'd constantly be comparing number two to number one though...

I would.
And I'm one of those people who gets really into relationships, and makes it too big of a deal.
You can't be loyal to a corpse. If they're dead, they no longer exist. Miss them with all your heart, but be realistic. Until it's possible to bring people back to life after they've been dead for a long period of time, you're only hurting yourself by promising to be forever alone. Your partner would want you to be happy, anyway, and you should be, knowing you literally did everything you could for them until the day they died.
And no, I don't feel immoral at all about this. Perhaps if you believe in the afterlife then I can see there being morality issues. But if you don't, I can't come up with a reason as to why you'd force yourself into a situation or claim you couldn't possibly have truly loved them if you consider other people when they are no longer an option. It's not like you can fight for them, fly to their country or try desperately to convince them that you should be their lover.

I'm not sure
Just as Skye said I'll feel guilty and I treat it as monogamy even though some people see otherwise. But then again if my spouse really loved cared they would know that living in the past isn't healthy and that the only thing that lovers want for each other is to be happy.
I know if I died young I would want my spouse to be happy no matter what.
This is giving me a headache and I got really drunk last night.
Thanks a lot, Zid.

No. [S]And I find it unlikely that I will ever find a spouse in the first place. Forever alone.[/S]
