    There is no fixed time that you are supposed to wait. If it is over; then it is OVER.
    Right after a breakup is a time when we really need our friends to support us through the process of readjusting to our new situation.
    I do suggest that you hold off on courting someone else for a while and limit yourself to dating and engaging in social activities.
    My thought is that it makes sense to do a bit of dating ASAP. It helps to keep the dating casual; otherwise you may find yourself venting to someone that is not the best choice.
    But it really is a great thing to stay grounded and have a social life ASAP.

    This is such an important topic. So many people I know are getting back into dating after getting divorced, or after a major breakup. I just read a really interesting dating book that gave some great advice on handling this subject called HOW TO DATE LIKE A GROWN-UP: Everything You Need to Know to Get Out There, Get Lucky, or Even Get Married in Your 40s, 50s and Beyond

    I would wait around 4-6 months. You really need to be over the other person before beginning anything with someone else. No need bringing baggage into a new relationship.You don’t want to be with someone on the rebound, it’s not fair to the other person.
