When is too soon for a bit of a fling?

So I've been separated from my husband since earlier this year. Our marriage has been on the rocks for some time. I got the ick a long time ago for a number of reasons.

So I've just been plodding along, sorting all the stuff that comes with a separation, like the house. We are not legally separated yet, but he is very clear he has moved on, and I suspect has another women.

Out of the blue I get a message from an old flame. We had a thing before i got with my STBX. I absolutely thought he was just gorgeous when I knew him, but things conspired against anything really happening. We have been flirting quite outrageously. I'm quite clear in my head I don't want anything serious, but if the offer was there for a bit of a fling I would definitely consider it.

Am I being a total idiot. Is it too soon? I was always incredibly attracted to him, and vice versa. Very good chemistry. Do I go down this road or not?
