| Date a separated or newly divorced person? Posted: 6/6/2006 3:51:03 AM | | I've been seperated for 2 and a half years....still no divorce. Has been in process for one and a half years. Didnt get it going right off as too upset, and didnt want to have to spend the money. Ex has not paid a cent for it. Fortunately my dad is helping me with this. As for me it is almost ridiculous to get it in some ways, as I have pretty well given up on dating at this point. Have tried for the past 2 years and no real luck. So i guess noone has to worry about datin me :) | |

I met the most nicest guy in a longtime he was affectionate but, doesnt know what he wants even stated he thought his wife would come back to him. I am not sure if he will come to terms with it. He wants us to be just friends. I have no idea what his thinking is I dont think he does eaither.  | |

That way...you don't have to necessarily be "dating", but can still have some fun meeting people and if something happens, even if fairly new to being single...there were no pretenses. | |

| Date a separated or newly divorced person? Posted: 12/2/2008 10:16:50 AM | My experience with a couple of dates with separated men is that they are not ready to date. All talked way too much about their soon to be ex-wife, the car, the property, the kids and the attorneys. All of which is not interesting to me, but other women may feel different. I can feel for you being separated as I have been there, but to listen over and over about how badly you have been treated is just not fun. Most single people (divorced) really want to date and have fun at least for the first few dates, not provide counseling.
So, if you are separated and want to date, I would suggest you talk about anything but the pending divorce, at least on the first few dates. | |
