I fought and fought with full self-awareness of getting on that slipper slope. It takes every ounce of strength and self-control not to slip. Back then, I recognized the reasons for wanting to date again so soon...it was because I felt lonely and needy. Not very good reasons to date again, eh.
You want to date because you feel good about yourself and ready to give again. I suspect that your cup is pretty empty now and might not be able to give yourself to another woman. Even as "friends with benefits." In that case, it may leave an unpleasant aftertaste in your mouth.
Just something to think about as it will involve other people. Would that be fair to them?
