Just broke up with someone - how long before I start over?

Everyone experiences and copes with breakups differently. If you saw it coming and therefore weren't as affected, just move on and do what you got to do. I'd start by asking her for coffee or a drink, if you can manage that somehow with the covid crap going on. Otherwise, maybe setup a video chat or something and just talk for a while. You have to get to know this girl all over again essentially because it's been a while, right? Don't just dive in head first because of her looks. Once you get to know her more, and I mean over the course of at least another couple of weeks, and you still feel attracted, let her know what the deal is. You're single, she's single, you find her attractive, etc, etc, and ask her out. That way you give yourself some time to actually figure out if you'll still get along with her, and after this period of time you can avoid worrying about any sort of "disrespect" it may have against your previous breakup, if there even could or would be any. At the very least, it'll keep people from getting any wrong ideas or spreading rumours about why you broke up with someone and immediately started dating someone else, which is always a nice thing to avoid. Good luck.

Go for it............good luck

This reminds me of various Family Circus comics along the lines of one of the kids asking something like, "Mommy, am I tired enough to go to bed yet?"  You do what YOU feel like doing.  If you want to start over then start over.  If you meet someone but you don't quite feel like starting a relationship yet then you don't.  It's very simple.

So you use people then?
