What if she's recently single?

I'm interested on your thoughts about women who just broke up with their boyfriends.

If they initiated the breakup, they've generally processed things and are open to hooking up.

But what if they were dumped and they're not over him?

I figure you shouldn't wait so some other guy can get in there, but are there any special considerations in this circumstance? For example if she's having a hard time and wants to talk about him...

Could be someone you just met or could be an acquaintance or someone in your social circle.

This is a pretty common situation so I'd love to hear how people have handled this in the past.

Irrelevant. Do your thing.

Women respond to attractive traits. Period. What if you just broke up with your GF, and then you saw a girl with a fat ass and big tits?

Agreed. It's not that relevant.
It just means that she's single. That's all.

Of course, if things get to a certain point then she might make out that it means something.
But, I suspect that if she brings it up, then you are doing something wrong. (standard "I am not an expert" disclaimer applies)

It's doesnt affect her being attracted to you. You just need to decide what you want out of the situation. If you're looking to 'tap the ass' then there's no problem but if you're looking to date her and she just got out of a 3 year off and on relationship with some guy then you need to take that into consideration if she's 25 and under. Younger women have a tendency to back track more than older ones.
