Who will you be with in the afterlife? Will having a new love cause a total lose of reuniting with the first love in the afterlife?

One should accept the loss and move on with one's life. I'm sure your "love" would want you to be happy. The new person can not replace what you have lost, but that person can help.

In the afterlife we don't experience things the way we do when we are on Earth. There is no pain emotionally or physically. You can reunite with many loves without having to choose one over the other.

We do not "couple" in the afterlife.
We are just individuals who share life experiences with many others along the way. The love will always be there, but you will not exist with either of these people as an exclusive couple. You may reincarnate and share a life with one or both of them again, in other forms such as siblings or close friends or cousins or coworkers or neighbours or even spouses, but not in the non-physical world. These relationships are simply a product of our physical existence.

You will be a spirit in the afterlife. You will be with both and rejoice to be together again, but it will no longer matter like it does here. Your thinking will not be the same as you will be at a higher level of existence. In heaven we will neither marry, or be given in marriage.Besides, I think your first love will want you to move on if they did love you.

first...if you lose the love of your life and meet another love...that means the first one was never the love of your life...or the second one is just a f-u-ck bunny for you.
second of all...what is YOUR belief in your afterlife. some believe that you are just rotting in the ground while others say that you will be on a planet with 72 virgins (wait a sec...how do the virgins stay virgins if you pork them for eternity...doesnt make sense does it...oh wait, i am on philosophy...it doesnt have to make sense).
if you have no concept of what YOUR afterlife is...chances are you have no idea what 'your true loves' afterlife conception as well...
oooh, making people think too much...
how lame and easy is this philosophy sh!t...i cant believe people ask these questions...it's like watching retards play twister...tragically hilarious...
okay yahoo...delete me again...

This makes two BIG assumptions. It assumes that there is such a thing as a "love of your life" and that there is an afterlife.
Usually a philosopher wouldn't ask a question like this without establishing these assumptions first.
Maybe you should ask this question in the religion section - they like unwarrented assumptions that are assumed to be unquestionably true.
And they'll probably quote Jesus and tell you that the concept of husband/wife doesn't really exist in heaven.

Till death us do part you are supposed to move on and find another love. I think you will meet up with your other love but it won't be the same since you have parted by death.

The Bible states that we will know each other in heaven, but there is not marriage in heaven. Regardless of what you choose to believe or not, that is what that source states. Therefore, remarrying after the death of a spouse is A-OK, according to scriptures.

my belief is when you pass over to the next level you will be with all of your loved ones and friends and you wont have the uncomfortable choice of having to chose who you spend eternity with. the next level is the reward you recieve for accepting christ as your saviorand this whole life is to get to know who jesus really is. dont get me wrong , i have accepted christ as my savior but i dont go to church on sunday and i dont sit around reading the bible, but like my mother in- law says "its better to be prepared and find out there is no heaven than not to be prepared and find out there is.'' so if you find another love,thank jesus and enjoy every minute that he has given you two, maybe its a gift of faith, who knows?good luck w/your new love. i'm sure your first love is delighted that you wont have to trudge through the rest of this life alone after all she is with all her loved ones and jesus. it dont get any better than that.
