Why should you feel, or be made to feel, that you should get back in the dating pool? The grieving analogy seems to make sense. You need time to adjust to your new circumstances and what it all means for you now and in the future.
Obviously I have no way of knowing, but I wouldn't be surprised if he had been planning this break-up for some time in advance of the event. It seems rather a coincidence that he has been able to sort out a new boyfriend and accommodation so quickly otherwise. Maybe I'm just being cynical. However long he'd been thinking in advance of leaving you he still gave himself more notice than he gave you. You're just behind him in dealing with the changes at the moment.
Take each day at a time and try not to let the rest of your life fall apart because of what has happened with your relationship.
Good luck.
