How soon is too soon?

I was in a relationship for 4 years and i ended it but he agreed it was time but it just happened on the 1st of this month. We talked the first 6 days still and pretty much wanted to redate and still wants to go on dates and talk but he just wanted to grow as a man first so that he’s able to take care of me and a family one day.

Long story short, I’ve known this guy since I was 15 and he was 19. Of course nothing happened he didn’t like but fast forward until now and we’ve reconnected and he’s honestly perfect. I started talking to him 2 weeks before my break up. My heart wants my ex but my body and mind get excited thinking about this guy.

He’s literally the complete opposite of my ex. He’s all the things I felt Incomplete and missing from my ex. Like the support, motivation, being interested in just me period.

Is it too soon? Should I wait until I figure out my emotions for my ex? Did you guys date someone right after?

He too just came out of a relationship that was 3.5 years. Which is weird no talking for 7 years and we somehow start talking again.
