I will not love like that again. This is a natural feeling, but realize how much you got from the relationship. Your blood pressure goes down when you hold a pet. Studies prove people respond to healing treatment far faster when they have a pet to help them recover. You have a friend who responds to you with unconditional love.
Studies prove pet owners are more active and healthier than non-pet owners.
Animals teach us to get in touch with our feelings. At least someone is there to share your space with you. There are many other reasons to share our lives with animal companions. This has been just a few ideas to consider before you decide when and if you will get another pet. I understand the upset and pain your pet's passing has brought to you, but try to realize your pet is not dead.
