Wondering about everyone's opinion on this.
I just had my first break-up. We had been together over two years. I had already been considering breaking up a few months ago, but decided to talk to her and try to work things out. Basically, I'm already ready to move on since this has been on my mind for a long time.
I know she's not though. We're going to try to remain living together as friends, so I also don't want to burn any bridges.
So, when do you think is the appropiate time to begin seeing someone else? I'm not exactly looking for advice, but am curious about everybody's feelings on the subject.
I really don't have an answer yet.
There's the whole "you have separate lives now" view in which some people think it's ok to be with someone the day after you break up.
This obviously wouldn't work if you don't want to hurt and piss off your ex.
Then there's the "you should wait until the person is ready" view, but this obviously doesn't lend itself to infinity. There would have to be a point where you tell your ex "I've moved on and you need to too".
Please share any experiences/thoughts
