I should probably qualify "everyone" as my family (out-of-state), a few close friends (5?), and my regular doctor (GP). My therapist knows everything I know, but he accepts and understands my choice. "Everyone" else may be sympathetic and believe they are helping, but DB/DRing goes against their advice as much as it goes against my instinct. For them, I am not really moving on unless I start seeing other people, something I cannot even consider right now.
I understand what you are going through. I think most LBS here are facing more or less the same thing. Seeing someone else while you are still 'grieving' is not going to make things better for yourself or whoever you are seeing. Most people around us do not seem to understand this. Be strong.
