How soon did you start dating after divorce?

Wait until your divorce or separation is final before you start dating. Even if you know your marriage is really, truly over, you still need to give yourself some time and space. Although theres no magic time frame by which one is ready to date, I typically recommend that one wait about a year, Jones says.
