how long b2n 2 relationships

Ok, I've been going out with this guy for 2 years and we just broke up and I'd like to know how long do you think I'm not allowed another guy. I'm not talking about me not being ready but about what other people would think. Because you know, people always think you're such a bith if you go for another guy straight after... So what do you think is the "normal" time required? (not that i'm not gonna do anything with a guy if other people think it's too early but i'd still like to know...)
What does b2n mean?
Precisely 7.5 days.
hahaha I don't know. I dated my ex for eight months, and broke up four months ago. I'm still not into any other guy.

Until you have sorted things out with your ex and know where you stand with him - be it friends or enemies. Until you definately know where that relationship has settled, it is impossible to start a new one, because you will still be thinking (at least subconsciously) "Is it possible to get back with him?" - wait until you know for certain if he is (1) An enemy that you never want to see again, (2) Someone that you could be platonic friends with or (3) Someone that you could give it another go with.

I've heard it takes about a quarter to a third of the relationship to get those feelings sorted - so for you, about six to eight months or so? It's a long time but any less and you will still probably questions floating about in your head. But basically, when you have those feelings sorted and an answer as to where your ex now is in your life.

Edit - personally, I think the 1/4-1/3 thing is bs, but the rest I do agree with.

Whenever you feel ready to be with someone else? I was with someone new about 6 weeks after splitting with a guy I was with for 15 months. I'd leave it at least a few weeks...but, if you want to be with someone else, don't make yourself wait just in case some people think it's 'too soon'.

Christ, grow your own opinions. Get with someone when you feel ready. **** everyone else.

And "b2n" I've also never seen before. It doesn't even make sense - "betoon".
