It sounds like you are worried about hurting her. If you really seperated on good terms and you really want the other person to find happiness then whenever you feel ready it is the right time. The thing is if you are worried about hurting your ex then all the feelings that were between you two aren't quite gone yet. To be fair to the next girl that comes along that could be that one make sure you feelings for your ex are no more than that is a person in my past that helped me learn who i am looking for, because if she is more and the next girl picks up on it then the next girl will leave because she will feel she has to compete with your ex and that isn't fair to her. You wont want your next girl still thinking of her ex. When your feelings for your ex are gone then you are ready!

Good Luck. x

Good luck!

Don't wait. Start looking. Right now.
What's the time now? 18:40 in the UK so you'll be at least 4 hours behind us. It's Saturday night, so if you start now you can be in bed by midnight - and whether it's yours or someone else's is entirely down to your own particular senses of morality and desire.
Go for it.

Well because it wasn't a bitter split, and you both decided to end it, you don't really have to wait, if you're hurting though, wait for a little while until you're over her, but if you're not upset about the split, go for it and put yourself back out there!!
