I think she still has some feelings for him. This would explain why she hadn't changed the locks. She was hoping he'd come back. Hell, it seems like she hadn't even dated anyone else in the meantime until Peter came along. Perhaps she finally reached a point where she acknowledged that he wasn't coming back and felt it was okay to date. Of course, that date happened to be with a psychotic Alpha werewolf with a blood vendetta who only wanted to use her to get to Scott, and said date was ruined (thankfully) by Stiles, but whatever. Although her reason for nit daiting anyone could have been she was just busy raising Scott and with work and didn't have the time to dtae somone. Don't forget Scott's asatma was suposed to be prety bad before he was bitten so it's popable that Meliisa had to spened alot of time with him so may not have had a lot of time plus hse alos seems to be like a second mother to stiles too,
