Is it true that the best way to get over an old love is to get under a new one?

I disagree. Maybe in the past, it worked superficially for me - like a "bandaid". But, it never healed the earliest loss, abandonment, rejection, or shame. It only covered up the pain and stalled the grieving. And, boy, did I believe I had already grieved more than enough for a multitude of people in my life time. I guess I underestimated the depth of that emptiness I carry with me.

Nope, not at all. In fact, I don't think you should even start a new relationship until you are over the past one and have dealt with the issues that caused problems in the past.

I disagree. I wouldn't want to start another relationship still entangled with emotions from the last. I wouldn't appreciate if someone I started dating hadn't become untangled themselves.

Nope I have to get over one relationship before starting another
