Dating: But we just broke up!

This weekend Jenna discovered her last boyfriend is engaged to be married. They just broke up in January. Obviously it’s a shock to her since he claimed she was rushing the relationship after 1 year. Since he proposed to his new woman so fast, she feels betrayed. She also wonders if he was seeing this woman before they officially broke up.

When a relationship ends, do you think a cooling off period is necessary? Do you get back to dating right away or wait till you know how the break up effects you?

Jenna thinks she has a right to know if her ex cheated on her with his new fiancée. Would you want to know or would this just remind you why the break up was inevitable? If you were the new person, would you be concerned with a proposal from someone who just broke up with an ex?
