Question: When is it OK to date after separation?

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.

Should you date someone going through a separation?

Getting divorced can be really emotionally painful and bringing someone new into the picture at this point in time might not be the best option. Most professionals advise waiting at least a year after your divorce to begin dating again. This allows your children to settle in, as well as yourself.
