How long should you wait after a breakup to date again?

Hi, just got out a 10 year relationship. i was wondering how long should i wait before dating again. I don't want to get in a rebound relationship. Thank you.

There's no set time but definitely spend some time on yourself. A break up from a relationship that long is painful regardless of who left who. Get to know yourself again and find out what interests you, there's very little that's as unhealthy as jumping into a relationship immediately after a break up.

Been there myself man, good luck with everything. There's no shame in seeking counseling if you feel it could help.

At least a year... go through the cycle of lonely and horny in a Pure state. If you don't then you will meet some girl, think all is better, never deal with your 50% Relationship Error, and repeat the Same over again.

You're in for a ride...

I would say at least a year.

But truthfully, until you feel ready to try and date again. Be honest with yourself and reflect

Well there's no definite timeline for something like that. It depends on you how long it takes for you to heal.
I've had a friend who had barely a week after her breakup before she met the perfect guy for her, her relationship was almost a year long.
My last relationship was barely two months back in 2019 and I'm still not ready to put myself out there.

Up to you. Whenever you are ready. Unless you were married. Then give it a year or until the divorce is final.

Seven to ten business days.
