Hi I'm in my mid 20s and just
Come
Out of a relationship of 4 years! The guy I was with I was sure I would marry kids etc but the last 2 years sort of knew it wouldn't work and now it's over for good!split was mutual and no hard feeling I don't think about him everyday and not in love with him anymore I wish him the best. I have kissed and cuddled a male friend after we broke up.. It's been about 6 weeks. As I was lonely but before it developed further i said I don't want anymore and that's it. But I still feel like I wnt to get out n meet new people and date again..do you think it's too soon? When is there a right time ? Thanks

There is not time limit.
Everyone is different and every ending of a relationship is different.
Just beware of the rebound thing.
I didn't really believe it existed until it happened to me.
Get out there and have some fun and take things as they come.

Get back out there if you have the opportunity. The first few people you date next will just be 'practise dates' as you get your eye in. Don't make any big commitments therefore, just enjoy yourself.

I'd rather chew off my own arm personally... :) but I hear they can be quite good as long as you keep your Twat Detectors set to 'stun'.

Cherry- I'd say go for it (I am). Maybe try browsing dating sites without uploading a picture first, to see what you think.
Hellsbells- HOW do you avoid the rebound thing?! This is worrying...
