How much time should one allow between relationships that end amicably? I'm not talking about people who were cheating on each other anyway. It could be married couples or committed couples or folks dating exclusively.
When and if that "Great Breakin up Day" comes, is there a standard amount of "recovery" time involved? It might be time allotted for the "dumped" to heal, or vice versa. Ain nobody trying to create no stalker here. But when its over, no matter how nice it was, when is it REALLY over?
How much time should you allow for your own safety and so that you don't offend the other one?

I don't believe in set time to move on. If you find someone else the next day then, you just move on.

Now I know you don't have to be out there looking, but don't you think YOU need a break? Even if THE ONE does show up the next day, you don't think the OTHER ONE will take offense and create a bit of a situation? Do you think theres a safe time line here?

I think it varies from situation to situation but since my last relationship ended I don't want to jump into anything.
I suppose that could hurt me if I met the right one tomorrow, but I'd hope that she would understand that I'm not looking for commitment right now.

I think it depends on the situation and the people involved. Depends on how that person handles the break up.

No time limit? Amicable means they know the end was due in theory.
I do know that the times where the females i split from were seeing other
ppl within weeks i was mad salty. I take a long ass time before i get involve again.

I'm the same way. Have never gone from person to person within a small time frame. Has nothing to do with the ex either. That's just me.

For this purpose lets take AMICABLY to be mutual or friendly.

I don't see a set timeline. If I was with someone and they met someone soon after, of course I think "Why not me?" but deep down I know you can't help your feelings.
I always say...everybody deserves to be happy. If happiness just happens to come walking around the corner a few days after, so be it. I hope it happens to me, too and I hope you are happy for me.

sheeiit..I rip a page outta Women's book when they break a man to nothing, on this one...
meaning the sooner I can round up the next vagina is as long as it takes me to get over the old broad.
WhoVille has always said...the quickest way to get over the old broad, is to tap the ass of the next one, lol....'cause after that I aint even finna even think about the one that hurt me.
...unless ofcourse I just deside to take time away from the games most people play alltogether anyway.....then the time could be longer...but it all roots to when WhoVille rounds up the next vagina.

i've taken a good amount of time between break ups, but that's more because i think i actually enjoy being single lol.
it truly depends on the people involved. but i could see how it might be hurtful to the ex. i guess my question is: why would their feelings still be a concern?
