How long to meet a new woman nt just for dating ,after dating someone for 3 years

I'm not sure what you are asking, exactly.

Are you asking :
"How long do I wait before trying to find a serious relationship, after having just gotten out of a 3 year relationship?"

It doesn't matter.

Women have free will too. They don't have to date you if they don't want to. And they can stop dating you for any reason whatsoever, no matter how justified or not you may think the reason is.

There's no guarantee a relationship will work. Ever.

You can sit and play "discover yourself" for 10 years, put all your "ducks in a row," believing you're "ready" and still have difficulty finding anyone, or difficulty bonding enough to develop a meaningful relationship.

You can go out tomorrow and start dating and find everything is freaking awesome, but she might not think so because she's insecure you're too attractive, and dump you while telling you it's your fault for not being over your ex.

There really is no "right" time.

The only thing that matters all that much is you being honest with yourself, and others, about how you really feel, and what you really think.

It all evens out.
There's no "right time" for dating or relationships.
There is only trying.
How honest you are, with yourself and others, about how you feel and what you're thinking (motivations), is a large part of how you can tell if you're really trying.
If you aren't trying, then you're only consuming, taking like a vampire what validation and pleasure you can get from someone.

42 The answer is always 42

I don't think there is a rule on how long to wait. It's up to you.

I would wait at least an hour.
This goes for swimming after eating also.
So it is easy to remember.

You are here..has it been an hour?

3 years and oooooooooooooooooooooooonnnnnnneeee day

you have to check the expiration date on the side... always check that.. always.

sometimes they will try to change it with pen.. so, look carefully

You thinking about the great #42, Jackie Robinson?

I think you just have to take thing easy, distance might have some issues with relationship

Depends on who dumped whom...

If she dumped you, omg that hurts! Anytime after she dumped you is good.

If you dumped her, omg you're dead. So move to another country and change your name, wait until she is married and living happily ever after... then and only then, you may consider dating someone else.

Hell, I wouldn't even go back.

How long did she wait?

So your behind right.

.. so I'm guessing!! you're saying you were dating someone for 3 years and you broke up.. recently?..
And now you're wondering how long..
Before you should jump back in the dating pool..??. well first you should make sure you are truly over your last relationship.. all issues resolved.. then you need to look at what mistakes you made in your past relationship... but make sure they were really your mistakes..lol.. and if so! take a good hard look Within yourself .and realize what you need to do to make you!! a better person for you and your next partner.... once you have done that.. grasshopper!! you are ready to put on your dancing shoes

I don't often second your advice... usually way too many Kleenex related issues involved -grin. But this time I'm with ya all the way. Sound advice.

The impact of that series is astounding. Will we ever forget about the importance of 42 and Babelfish?
I remember turning 42, full of hope. Then I turned 43, nothing life altering had happened. I was so disappointed

I agree too many people start dating right away before they figure out what went wrong with their last relationship. I think you need time to recover, nurture yourself and figure out what you want from your next relationship.

Some good advice here folks., but yea we kinda both broke it off an that was 3weeks ago .i still have feelings bt I would go with another woman nufin serious though

The answer to your question lies right in front of you IN THE KITCHEN.

Take a frypan, a potato and a saucepan..Both accessories will do the job of cooking the potato.

Now compare the potato with yourself and being cooked.

The choice of HOW WOULD YOU PREFER TO BE COOKED lies entirely with you.

Boiled or Fried ??..Otherways one learns from previous experience. Or NOT.

I would personally RUN and find my SANITY first, then make my choice of if, how, when or with whom I will enter a relationship next.

Take care and follow your heart or gut feeling/s.

There is no set time. Just make sure you're over your ex-girlfriend first.

Ohh
