#datingquestion

I've been wondering about this question for the last two days ever since the fiasco with Mr. Australia, this question has been gnawing my head. How much time is enough time to start dating someone new? I know some people jump in-and-out of relationships quickly, prime example, Mr. Australia but is 10-days enough time for someone to heal and date other people? 

I don't know.

I can't speak for other people but I know for myself that I needed a lot of time, after the Ex. I'll admit that right after the break-up I did hook-up with a few men but it wasn't all that serious. I was just looking for someone to fill the void. I felt terribly guilty afterwards and my mind kept wandering back to the Ex.

Now, that I'm 100% over him, I'm ready to move on from my past. It's been a year and a half since our break-up. And I've stopped talking to him completely. I'm ready to date again but I always seem to get tied up with the ones who aren't ready or if they are, they quickly moved on from past relationships. 

I'm not expecting someone to have a clear dating history but I would like to know that they have moved on from past feelings/baggage. It would bother me if I knew that you just came out of a relationship of 2 years with so-and-so, just a month or 2 weeks before and now dating me.
