When to get back into dating?

Been going out with a girl for 2.5 years. She broke it off 2 months ago because she though I changed (broke it off while overseas and assumed a whole lot of stuff).



Anyway I'm still getting over her cos I did the classic stupid try to get her back a month ago but you cant when its long distance cos she will no matter how hard I try and assume that the image she made in her head is not what it really is (she traveled for work around 6-9 months ago and will be away for another year... was gonna go live with her overseas). yeah I was in a bad way (could not find work, family problems but that got all sorted out prior to break up).



Question is how long should I wait before I start seeing other people (not that I have anyone in mind). I still cant her out of my head and personally dont feel like dating. My mates are like 'go and shag and make out with randoms, its been 2 months' but thats not me. I dont know never been good at the dating game so I really dont know what to feel.When to get back into dating?
You are in control of your life so tell your friends to just SMEGG OFF already! If you were in love with her it is like she died to you so give yourself time to mourn. If you go at it now, know that you will bring a lot of negative vibes into your next relationship! Use your new found freedom to help others get a new hobby and spend time with friends and family. I know life sucks and the girl will regret what she did to you but stay strong man!!!!! Talk things out with someone you trust, if you are a bit depressed go see a counselor. You feel what you feel and that's OK. Tell yourself tomorrow will be better and eventually it will be!When to get back into dating?
start today
I would start to date someone else. It has been 2 months now so it has been long enough.

Go get em!
There's no exact amount of time. My last serious relationship was 2 yrs and it took me about 6mos before I wanted to start dating. It depends on each person. You'll know when you are ready. Don't rush it. The time will come.

You need to wait and heal. For some it takes weeks, for some months, and for some a year. So if you feel like you don't want to you are not ready. Work on yourself, do fun things with friends, do some volunteering, and keep your self busy. It will take time and that is great because then you will be ready when it does happen.
That's up to you. Whenever you feel ready do it. I suggest ASAP.
if their is no contact from her go ahead, if contacted do not.
ok first of all, i dont care how anyone answers this because no one can answer ur question better than u can. this is a compltly personal issue, u obviously still have feelings for her and u say u dont want to date yet. whenever you feel the time is right then that is the right time to start dating again. dont start to date to early because then u will only compare people to ur ex. good luck with everything.
It's always been my opinion to start dating when you feel like dating. You've got to find yourself again before you get back into the game. I know it's hard but you have to go find something to get involved in , something you enjoy doing so you can think about you and what you want to do with your life so you'll be able to let go of the past and move forward. Long distant relationships don't work. You need to be around people you can actually see touch and feel. So take your time a date when YOU feel like it. In the mean time get back into the land of the living. Good Luck
