hmmmm...with kids involved i say get yourself together first before bringing in another relationship and all it's baggage - it's hard enough as you well know to make a relationship work without all the extra baggage you have with what you have just been thru
it doesn't mean you can't be friends with this person, but really - take time to get over the first one. too many 'rebound' relationships are just that...no use hurting yourself and your son
i used to be an avid dr laura listener...yeah she has her quirks, but the one thing i agreed on totally was to not 'date' with kids - but of course that is her opinion, as well as mine
