First of all, I don't think its healthy waiting around for a girl to breakup so you can swing in and snatch her up. Not only is it kinda sociopathic, but there's a good chance that you will be holding your breath for a long time.

For the sake of answering your question, I'll assume that it is inevitable that the breakup will occur, and in the near future. The answer to that depends on a lot of things.

First, it depends a lot on the girl. Some will be ready to date right away, some will need time to recover, enjoy being single for a while, and get their trust back. The amount of time depends greatly on the girl, and the nature of the breakup. A common rule is to allot half the relationship's time up to a year, but this is a VERY general rule of thumb and should be taken with a LARGE grain of salt.

The best answer is to let nature run its course. Do your own thing, show you're interested in the girl, and give her the option to come to you when and if she's ready. Don't become blinded by this one girl who may never be interested in you and overlook a dozen other awesome girls.
