Jumping on Tinder after a breakup can be a great way to remind someone that they are desirable and that there are plenty more fish in the sea, she says. Its an effective distraction, but there is such a thing as jumping back on the horse too soon. (That is, the things that made your breakup so painful.)

How long should I wait before going on Tinder?

Waiting 12 to 24 hours gives her just the right amount of time to start wondering why you havent contacted her yet when your message finally comes along. Your basic routine should be to check your Tinder twice every day, once in the morning and once in the afternoon.
