Josh Murray was recently photographed with about a dozen girls at a bar, including former The Bachelor contestant Ashley Iaconetti, but his ex-fiancee Andi Dorfman is doing the exact opposite and staying away from men.

"I think I've dated enough in the past year," she added. "Yeah, I think my number is good. It's gonna hold me over for a while."
Dorfman and Murray got engaged in May 2014 although the proposal didn't air on The Bachelorette until July of that year. The pair announced in a joint January 2015 statement they had decided to call it quits. About one month later, Dorfman cried to Chris Harrison in a candid interview about her heart being broken on The Bachelor: [Chris Soules] Tells All special.
According to Dorfman, they both struggled to obtain the "alpha male" role in the relationship and found that their personalities were both so strong, they clashed and failed to empower one another.
In attempt to make a fresh new start, Dorfman moved from Atlanta, GA, to New York City.
"I'm obsessed. I kind of feel like I look like the biggest tourist here because I take pictures everywhere I am, and I actually live here which is the crazy part," Dorfman told Us. "I have to literally pinch myself every day, like, 'Oh my God, I'm in New York. I live in New York.' It's awesome, just like the energy. Everything is very clear to me here. I just belong."
"I think it's crazy to think that a year ago, where I was, and now, here I am living in New York City. Never would I have thought I would be doing this. But I'm definitely embracing it."
Dorfman, a former assistant district attorney, said she's taken a break from the law in order to pursue another passion.
"My license is in Georgia. Right now, I just moved in! The apartment is finally starting to come together, and I'm like, 'Alright, now I can go explore the city...' I want to get into fashion, and it's part of the reason that I'm here. I love fashion, always have. But I'm just seeing where things take me right now," she explained.
Dorfman is reportedly working on a few projects right now.
"They're fun," Dorfman noted, explaining what are her favorite spring trends. "I'm really into the scuba fabric... It fits every body. I'm definitely ready for some dresses. Probably some crops."
Dorfman said that "as a single girl" she makes her small space in New York work. In fact, she thinks it's fun because this is the first time she's had a place to herself.

"I was working before I even passed the bar. So, I've never had the opportunity [to move], and I've always envied my friends who went and traveled abroad. Or went somewhere else to a big city like this. I'm finally doing it, and it feels good! I just want to let it find me."
Dorfman moved to West Village in downtown Manhattan and she apparently loves her place.
"I hunted that thing down though. I've always lived with somebody, so it's been interesting to kind of design in my own way," Dorfman explained, adding that she has support from her girlfriends such as former The Bachelor bachelorettes Nikki Ferrell and Sharleen Joynt.
"[They are] the best! I love my girlfriends," Dorfman gushed. "I've always been more of a girl's girl. So it's fun for me. I'm the type of person who wants to be good! I feel like I'm finally in a really good place. I feel like, now it's kind of about me. I don't need to worry about the dating lifestyle and just focus on me in New York and just enjoying life."
