Depression or not?

Recently, I got dumped by someone I was really in love with. And I think I've been 'sad' lately the normal amount. I don't walk around crying all the time, but I do have my tiny moments at night just remembering him. The break up was as healthy as it could of been. There was a deal breaker. I want to have children, he did not. So ultimately, he let me go so I can be with someone who can give me what I want. I guess love sometimes has nothing to do with relationships eh?
A friend of mine recently told me that she thinks I am 'depressed'. It's either I am in sheer denial, or sometimes I just think I'm bored and need to keep myself busy or perhaps develop a new hobbie. I've been dating for such a long time, that seems like dating for marriage/babies has been somewhat of an 'obsession' I guess. Maybe I just need to take a break from dating?
I have nothing against the fact that I could possibly be depressed. It just that the idea, doesn't sit well with me and I sometimes think I just need a vacation??? Does anyone feel that way ??
Thanks for listening.

heartgirl - I think a break from dating is a good idea.
Heartgirl2010,
I agree with both of the previous posters. If you find you can't get out of bed, that is a sign of depression. A psychologist or psychiatrist can help you determine if it is depression. Good luck! I hope you feel better soon!
