There isn't actually a period. You can't choose who and when you love. Let love just happen.

I think 30 days to get clean mentally and just deal with yourself is enough time before you start to date again. But it just depends on the depth of the relationship that you just got out of. If the relationship was not that serious you might date sooner, but vice versa if the relationship meant a lot it might take as long as 6 months before you feel comfortable about moving on to someone else.

There's not really a prescribed length of time to wait. It can be hard to know when, but you should make sure that you feel like you've healed from your past relationship and feel ready to move on with a new perspective for a new relationship. It's fine if you're not ready; everyone deals with things in their own time.

Don't count the time and days. What matters is your readiness to opening up to a new chance and commitment. If you feel like whole again, go on.

There isn't a specific time that has to pass before dating a new person, it's all about your will and how you feel. If you feel ready to date somebody else, than do. But if you still feel stressed from your past relationship, that is a big sign that you are not ready to move on.

There isn't a right time to start dating someone new. If you feel like it's right for you to start dating again, go for it. Don't let anyone tell you it's too early to start dating again, that's all up to you.

As soon as you feel ready to date somebody else. Take things at the pace you wish them to go and only go ahead with it whenever you feel ready to.

There is no right or wrong answer to this question you will know in your heart when you feel ready, nobody can ever tell you when you should be ready as that's up to you! When you know you know it could take 5 days or it could take 5years follow your heart ❤️
