When is too soon to start dating after a divorce

So if you truly want to enjoy what the future has in store, give yourself time to come to terms with your past.

The decision to divorce never comes lightly and every divorced person I meet feels as if they mourned the marriage before the separation.In fact, if someone gives me that line, it is a sure sign that the person is on the rebound. That means you are most likely going to date other emotionally unhealthy people.Post separation is an emotional roller coaster and thinking you’ve mourned fully during the marriage is a sure sign that you are not very far down the path of emotional recovery. Those people may also be on the rebound, they may be narcissists that specifically look for vulnerable women, but healthy people want to be with someone that has some distance from their marriage.Google “How long should I wait after divorce to start dating?” You’ll get a whole bunch of opinions, but all that matters is you.

If you want sex, find a friend with benefits that is in a similar place as you and is also not in the right place for a committed relationship.
