Do you believe in moving on TOO fast? After a breakup

Question

Everybody deserves to be happy, but do you take time to heal yourself before moving on? Or do you date right after a break? Did/Does it help you move on?

Answer

A lot of people were in the processes of accepting a relationship was over before it even officially was. We don't know how long a person has been coming to terms with that, so we can't judge how soon "too soon" is when we just know the break up date. How soon I started dating again varied on the relationship I was in. Sometimes I started dating shortly after and sometimes I'd spend a year or more healing.

Answer

For me, getting out and dating was part of my healing. Everyone is different.

Answer

Personally from my experience it’s always better to take time to heal or you risk repeating the same issues in new relationship (obviously depending on how previous relationship was and ended)

Answer

I meant to hit yes. But it also depends. 
Your heart needs to heal and I think people become Relient in always having someone there so the thought of being “alone” is terrifying. But it can be freeing and help you figure out who you are as a person without being attached to someone else.

Answer

I met my husband 2 weeks after a breakup (we we’re together almost 5 years). I’ve been with my husband for 9.5 years married 7 (in April). So I think you should do what you feel is best and don’t put a time limit on it.

Answer

It’s hard not to think of someone you invested so much time in. When loosing that loved one it’s easiest to always be busy always have friends to call and talk and always have get your ass smashed. For me I would rather master bate than even have sex bc I feel as though no one deserves me and I become hatful towards men ... I replace my attentions on my children to stay busy and it’s lonely in an intamacy way but it always gets better I have not been single in years but I hope this helps.

Answer

It depends, so do whatever feels good to you🤷‍♀️😊

Answer

If I felt like seeing other guys right away after my break up. I would have.. I would do what feels right, I physically and mentally couldn't until about 4 months, and after 4 months I was just feeling like hooking up with guys, not getting into another relationship or serious with anyone. I knew I still had a lot of healing to do. I took time for myself and it felt good. I had my first new bf around a year and a half after my break up.

Answer

It depends on the person. I have a friend who was with her husband for 7 years (married 2). He was abusive in every sense of the word and a cheater. About a week or two after they officially ended it she met a guy on Tinder, went to his house, and hasn't left yet. He has helped her immensely. He's helping her learn to cope and heal on her own without depending on him, but he's there for her. He helps her through her seizures (epileptic) and helps her with her mental health. 
At first I was obvious skeptical. I told her moving in with him was a bad idea, it was too soon. But her ex was very unstable and knew where she lived and she just didn't feel safe. I told her I still thought it was a bad idea but would support her, and be here if it went sideways. That was about 8 months ago and she's doing amazing. For her the relationship was over long before it was official. Her and her boyfriend are doing amazing and planning on buying a house in about a year. I check in to make sure she's okay. I make sure she knows that even though I do like him, that can change in a heartbeat if he does something to her. I make sure she knows she can tell me if things go south. But she is truly happy, happier than I ever saw her with her husband. Their divorce will be finalized in a week and I couldn't be more happy for her.

Answer

I broke up with a guy I dated for almost 2 years. Met my husband a week later. We’ve been together 9 years and I’ve never been happier. We had our first baby in January 2020
