I think you mean half the time? @sarahsweets Or Something.

If someone was married for 20 years and got divorced at 50. I don’t think it’s realistic to wait 40 years to date, you’d be 90. My husband was in a bad marriage, long one. If he waited to date double the time, he’d be over 100 years old to start dating lol He sure would never met me. I’d be long dead or married to someone else!

Average recommendation is to have enough time process what happened. Some people need a year some 5 years and some never truly process anything. Another recommendation is to wait a minimum of a year.

Wait double the time just isn’t realistic with long term relationships or any relationships unless it was really brief
