People heal at different rates. For example you can have people that have dated for 6 months get their heart broken and then take 5 years to recover then you have some people who can be in a relationship for 10 years break up and then not give a single shit. The key difference that I think is feelings for example the person in the 6-month relationship could have had nothing but good times with that person and fell head over heels for them because they thought that person was perfect and that they would never hurt them. The person in the 10-year relationship has gotten past all of the honeymoon phases and everything else and after a few years realizes that the relationship isn't all that it was in the beginning and then feelings die as time went on until they just break up to not continue wasting their time. And when it's mutual no one gets hurt. Hell one of the last relationships I was in took me three years to get over and I was only with her for a year and a half. But I spent almost every day I could with her and if there was something I was mad about I wouldn't stay mad for long because I just wanted her but all good things crash and burn at some point.

I would not do this
If you're trying to move on absolutely.
After 8 months or a year though? That's a long time to wait to move on.
