The Adjustment Period

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The transition from married to single is never an easy one. Discuss your adjustment period with those who understand and relate.

Rebounding

while its important to jump back in remember to do it feet first this time. Don't assume because the new girl is so much better that's the girl you want. I really reccomend dating more than one woman for awhile. At least long enough to witness how they act during that first special fight that should give you all the clues you need.

rebounding

Good point, if you find yourself in a position to get back in the game, try to spread yourself around a little bit. Might be tough to find the perfect one after one date, and you definitely will see that all women are different if you go out with a few of them. See how they handle adversity...they all are emotional time bombs, but some a lot worse than others. Sometimes circumstances don't allow it, e.g., when your friends know your single, they have a tendency to set you up with single women they know. Going out with numerous other chicks after they set you up with that "great girl" could cause problems. Be smart whatever you do.

As far as rebounding, it

As far as rebounding, it depends how long you've been out of the game. Since this is a divorce site, it can be assumed that some of the guys here have been on the shelf for a while. In order to get the confidence back, get out there and do whatever you can with whoever you can. Even if she's not a "long-termer", she's still good for practice. You have to take a couple of practice swings, don't waste them on the keepers. The good thing is that there are so many more venues out there to meet people, primarily through the net, that didn't exist even a few years ago, so rebounding is far easier than before. You're own personal experiences and issues may still be an issue, but the dating scene doesn't have to be. Sites like this one definitely help. It's good to have a sounding board to see what other people go through.

What you say is true, Steven,

What you say is true, Steven, there are so many more ways now to meet women than there used to be. You don't have to torture yourself in a bar, at the supermarket, or all the other cliche places anymore. There are so many places on the net, some of which are even linked on this site, where you can meet women. Some of them, like Ashley Madison, are like cheater sites, where you are likely to find sexual hookups. Some of the other ones, like E-Harmony, are geared more towards "normal", or at least more traditional type companions. But you can sit and browse from the comfort of home until you find one you are interested in. Granted, there are some psychos out there of both sexes, but overall, any woman on one of those sites is looking to meet someone, or she wouldn't be on it. So all the pressure isn't on you. Divorce sucks, I know that all too well, but life afterwards doesn't have to.
