How long after marriage ending is it acceptable to announce new relationship?

I told my husband at the end of October I wanted a divorce and I moved out end of November. I was really looking forward to being single for a couple of years.

However, I 'accidentally' bumped in to a man mid November and we have been seeing each other pretty much every day since. Sparks are flying when we're together (cheesy much?) and I am really falling for him, as is he for me.

We've now been seeing each other for a month and are keeping this relationship secret for now. But how long should I wait until I can tell people I've met him? Two months? Three months? Six months?

I'm not too keen on having a 'secret' relationship but everything is very raw still with the separation so know I have to wait a while yet...

you bumped in to the man mid november but didn't move out until two weeks ago? so this situation is really in its first flush here, the first fortnight. And you bumped him to the man before you moved out. Obviously you were going to move out but the timeline could make you look bad / hurt your xh (whichever concerns you more)

sorry, don't mean to be judgey but slow down Brew
