I disagree with doing this JUST YET. At some point you'll have to, but I wouldn't this soon after the end of a 2.5 year relationship.

IMHO, from the experience of a relationship ending out of the clear blue sky after 4.5 years--take some time without the opposite sex on your radar screen. Relocate the parts of you that are just you, without your ex involved. Rediscover who you are when she's not around. There is so much of you right now, that can't help but have revolved around her over the last two and a half years. You need to find you again, without her, and get comfortable in your own unattached-to-someone skin before you can be successful in another real relationship.

Some will tell you to go get laid to prove to yourself you're still desirable. If you're up for it, go for it, but don't expect it to be anything more than rebound.
