Re: How long should I wait?

I agree that it all depends on your readiness. If it feels right, go ahead but if it feels too soon, wait until you are ready.

A suggestion I have for whenever you begin dating is to take your time!!! What I really mean is TAKE YOUR TIME!!! Take time to assess how healthy this relationship is. Do you like all his qualities, values and behaviours? Or does it just feel good to have a man around again? What is he bringing to the relationship? If your best friend was seeing this man (instead of you), what would your advice to her be?

We codies tend to jump in feet first. By learning to listen to our hearts AND our heads, we make much healthier choices....even if it means waiting and being selective!!!
