Yeah enjoy the time to yourself before thinking of finding another partner

If you feel you want someone in your life now then go for it. Meeting someone new often makes people move on quicker. If you dont feel ready to date yet, then take some time out. It does not hurt to go out with a few people though for company and get back into the swing again. There are plenty of women out there looking for someone special so I am sure you will find someone nice.

Just for a little while dude. You don't want to rush into something just to fill that void your feeling. Take some time, love yourself, go on a mini vacation, do those things you couldn't do when you were married, have some fun. When you forgive her than it will be time for you to move on. When you can remember her and wish her well, than you hold no baggage from the past and your truly ready to move on.

Celebrate with friends but don't go looking just yet for a partner. Chill out for a while and enjoy your independence.
Sorry she ran off - obviously was the wrong one for you. We all make mistakes, nice to know you don't dwell on yours.
Take care and take it slow

After my divorce I took about a year to reconnect with myself. It was a year well spent. It kept me from the nasty rebound thing and gave me a chance to figure out what I want out of life. You'll know when you're ready to get out there again. It will come as a feeling of happiness and contentment, a belief that you have something to share, rather than that you need something from another person.
Good luck.

Coming from a young woman that had experienced this late in life seeing my mom go through this dating wouldnt be bad! My mom wasnt looking for someone after her divorce. I understand that this is not an easy thing to go through Ive seen my mom go through it. Hang in there, give it sometime before you know it you will find that special someone. Good Luck!

,My divorce came through last year,
I think you do need time to yourself and mates for a while,
Maybe a month or two lol
I had time out with my daughters, and to find myself again,
I am now a person who I and many other people love,
Now I go out and enjoy whatever and whoever I want,
Good luck
;-)

Sorry to hear your story mate, all I can say is for as long as is necessary, do exactly whatever it you want to do at any moment. So yes take some time out and do what you want to do!

My advice dont think about what you should or should not do, enjoy life, if someone comes along that is good for you great if not just relax and enjoy life
