How long did you wait before dating after a breakup?

The sheer thought of even going for coffee with someone when you're heartbroken sounds like a complete nightmare, but we all have to move on eventually, right?

In a study conducted by iReach for Toyota Ireland, Irish women were found to be a lot more cautious when it comes to getting "back out there" compared to our male counterparts.

According to the study, 68% of Irish women said they'd wait anything between six to 18 months before going on a date after a bad breakup.

Only 8% of women, surprisingly, said they'd be happy to date one month post-breakup, while one in five men said they'd get back in the game after 30 days.

Are Irish women being coy, or are they simply not interested in a rebound fling?

Aside from that, it appears that once we do go on a date, we expect a follow-up fairly immediately, with 30% of us expecting contact within the two days that follow a date.

While an eager 12% of us expect to hear from our dates within the hour after it ends. Do you expect a sweet text the minute you part ways?

And when all is said and done, and we find the one, 41% of us Irish folk will wait two years before walking up the aisle post-proposal.
