Well first you have to work on yourself before you even begin to start dating again. You're in a tough emotional place right now, and it would just be more difficult for you to deal with things if things doesn't go well on your next date...or in your next relationship. Once you're ready to meet new guys, then you should focus on being process-oriented not outcome-oriented. In other words, go in with the intention of having fun, enjoying yourself and the date, and the thrill of meeting someone new. Whatever happens from there...happens. But just look to have a good time. Learn to read body language and pay closer attention to a guy's words. Is he showing you all of the positive verbal and nonverbal cues? If so, you'll have a greater chance to continue dating him (of course that's if you like him as well. :^))Hope this helps!
