Does true love exist??

As in soulmates or finding the one?? I feel like I’m never gunna find love. I was in a relationship for 9 years. He got in a accident and was never the same since, started drinking and his whole personality changed. I fell out of love with him. I miss the old him and I feel like I’ll never come close to finding someone again. I wouldn’t even know where to begin. I’m so shy and I don’t know how to just strike up a random conversation with a guy?? Like idk I feel like I’m just gunna be single for the rest of my life lol.
