Olivia Wilde said she's learned 'it's important to spend some time in a relationship with yourself.'Olivia Wilde hasn't yet moved on to another guy since filing for divorce from Tao Ruspoli, but she may soon.
"I'm opening my heart up to the idea of dating," she said in the June issue of Glamour.
Though Wilde, 27, really wants to "spend this time working on" herself ? she married Ruspoli in 2003 when she was just 18 ? she knows she'll likely be in another relationship sooner rather than later.
"I don't want to, but I probably will," she told the magazine. "I wish I could play the field. But it's so not me."
The actress added that she's "a really good girlfriend," since she goes "100 percent into everything."
And perhaps that's how she ended up married at such a young age.
"We got engaged at Burning Man and married on a school bus," she recalled. "We were not conventional."

The decision to split, revealed in February, "was the hardest thing" Wilde "ever had to do," she said.
"I think the promise we always made was that if we are no longer happy, we won't continue," she explained. "And it got to the point where I was working 10 months of the year outside of L.A. and he was doing incredible things in other places. We were no longer partners in crime."
But that doesn't mean the "Cowboys & Aliens" star sees the relationship as a failure.
"Sometimes it's eight years and it's great, and you have to know when it ends," Wilde said. "The mark of a good marriage is partnership and continuing to feel inspired by your spouse. I had that with Tao."
"But the end is not necessarily the tragedy," she continued. "Staying in a relationship that is no longer working is the tragedy. Living unhappily?that's the tragedy."
The June issue of Glamour is on newsstands May 10.
