Sometimes a relationship after a relationship is not bad at all. It can be a good thing. I was with my ex for six years then met my current bf like a month later. We are now planning to be married next year. It worked out, it can for you too.
Just take it as slow as you can. Being independant is hard, getting used to not having someone sleeping next to you is hard. However once you get used to it you will love it. I have lived alone for almost 2 years now and I love my freedom and the bed is all mine most of the time.
