I brokeup with my boyfriend of eight years two days ago. he is 23 m i am 24 F.

we've been needing to break up for about a year now.  it was prolonged with long distance that happened in December. (and we are still in separate countries)

i am in Hawaii for the next two months still before i go back to west coast canada.

there are guys here that ive had some interest in since i got here but never did anything because i was tied down

my ex and I have been emotionally detached for at least 6 months.   (no i love yous from him.  he did some cheating (not intercourse) no i miss yours from him.)

we had a clean break up. i talked to him today we're fine.  mutual.  Sad that i fear change.  happy that i'm free.

but now.. How long do i wait?  Can't i just go out now?  get my flirt on?   are there rules?  i havnt been single since I was 16.
