How long should you wait to start dating?

everyone is different.  however long it takes you to get back on your feet, it could be 6months, it could be a year. but whenever that time comes there is no need to continue to be in mourning, of course you should never try to forget the death of a loved one.  but moving on is necessary both for you and the children.  just take it slow, and things will fall into place.  she wouldn't have wanted you to continue to live lonely.

I believe in love at first sight.  Tell me would it make since for you to take a month to decide if you like someone.  God put someone on this earth for you.  I don't believe in dating for a long period of time.  Like I said before you  should be able to decide if you like someone or not.  If don't thats your problem.  It has not happened to me yet.  It require patience

You are just being allowed to date this year?  Dear lord...  welcome to the dating rollercoaster ride of ups and downs, highs and lows.  In this day and age, don't expect to settle down for at least a good decade or two.  I don't like anyone either right now.  Don't worry, the odds are that you will like many, many guys sometime between now and death.  So my advice would be to relax, and enjoy having your heart before someone comes and snatches it away.  I hated hearing this when i was younger, but it's true, there is plenty of time.

U really should wait until you're a bit older, maybe till you're a teenager before you have a boyfriend.\n\n:-)

First, wait until you're over the first girl.  Then start seeing people when you feel that you're ready.  No need to start a relationship again, just date.  That way you can find out if you want to be in another relationship or just play the field.  Could take weeks, months, maybe even a year.  All up to you.  Just make sure you're over the previous relationship.

If you arent going steady or engaged or married you can date how ever many you want at a time. Just be honest about the fact you dont date exclusively.

Should I go for a relationship?  That's your question.  Hey about slowing it down.  Calling something a relationship is a little fast don't you think?  You want to go for a relationship?  Let the relationship happen.

Any and everywhere.  Set aside, for a moment, the idea of looking for your next relationship and focus for a time on having a good time.  Strike up conversations with people you find attractive in line at the movies, at bars, restaurants, in the grocery store, book store, or wherever you go to pursue your interests.  \n\nMeanwhile, ask your friends to set you up with dates and go with the express intent of "practicing" dating - in other words, go with zero expectation of starting something.  If you have fun, great - you've met your goal.  \n\nSet goals for yourself like, "today I will talk to nine strangers I think are attractive" and go out and hit those goals.  Eventually, you'll meet someone with whom you really click.  The secret is giving up the attachment to having a relationship.

I don't think there is a certain "time limit" it is more like how well you know the person.. if you like them two seconds afer you meet them... what makes you think you will two years from now...(speaking for long term relationships) Get to know the person and have a group date see how well they react to that before going with them alone.

Just be active and start a relationship later.

Yes, you should take some time, even if you don't think you need it, to reevaluate yourself, your feelings about the world and relationships.  If anything, just to make sure you will be okay, and not have a bad after effect later than expected.  You know, to make sure you still know you.  Relationships change people, even if they don't see it, so it is best to just relax, take a break, and make sure you are totally comfortable to go back into dating before you try again.  If you are not sure, just wait, it is likely you are feeling some subconcious doubt, and that will hurt your chances of a good experience.  You will want to give a new partner what they deserve, and you have to be confident and sure to really give it your all.

If it was a serious relationship involving love, there is no true time limit. It all depends on when your ready. I would say six months. You never know, but if you try going out and it doesnt feel right. You would know that means your not ready.

you can, or you can wait and get to know each other better. especially if you dont want to end up dating someone who actually likes someone else. you've got plenty of time before you need to start worrying about this stuff...i know most people are dating by this time, but i waited till i felt i was more mature and the relationship would actually mean something, and i'm very happy that i did.

All the experts say you should date for at least 1 year

When you are old enough to realize that evryone is not as nice as they seem. And that some young relationships are petty and THEY DONT LAST FOREVER!!!! Realize that one day your heart may get broken and that one day you might have to break a heart. Start dating when you realize that you are able to defend yourself(both verbally and physically). And the most important thing, before you go out to find someone else, please find yourself. No one in this world knows you more than yourself and no onne should try to tell you anything different.

It really depends on the situation at hand and the couple as to whether or not it is too fast. I knew a couple who married after only about 6 months and neither was financially stable which caused problems in the marriage etc. and it ended in divorce because they were both pretty unhappy with the situation. Another couple I know dated for 3 months and then married and they've been married for almost 30 years. They were financially secure. I think being financially secure is a main thing to look at. you dont want to put any extra stress on the relationship because right after you are married is supposed to be one of the best times of your life and the most enjoyable. \n\nOn another note, dating long term doesnt hurt anything either. I've been dating my boyfriend for 3 years now.
