I still think you should have waited until after D to start dating, but I realize that I am old-fashioned and modern society doesn't see it that way.
That sadly may be true. However, the modern professional community of counsellors and therapists thankfully still do. I'm always very surprised to see the number of people who bounce so quickly to a new R - often with the first or second person they date. hopefully it works out.
