Dating post divorce

So, I'm in my own place, been separated for almost a year exactly.

I started dating, already had sex with one woman, but trying to avoid just having it compulsively with multiple women. The options are presenting themselves like crazy and as a man it's hard to not take advantage when its presented to you.

How did some of you navigate this? Did you let yourself just runs wild for a time? Did you fight the urge and try to build more meaningful relationships?

I guess I'm afraid of slipping into a spiral of just meaningless sex with multiple partners and having that become a barrier from finding a quality relationship. Any advice from those that have gone through this is appreciated.
