The key to successful post divorce dating is to have fun with it. You have to let go of the past and give yourself permission to be happy with life as it is and yourself. You are an attractive, worthy individual who deserves the attention and fun. Get out and enjoy yourself!

Dating after divorce is a bit easier if it was an uncontested divorce. The angst of a difficult divorce really makes you feel beaten and drained. With a no contest divorce the couples can often separate as friends and with their self esteem intact. kevin’s last blog post..Do-It-Yourself Divorce or Divorce Lawyer?

Hi Todd

It is really hard to leave those “I am married” feelings behind, especially after so long with one person. Love the idea of the wristband as a reminder, half the battle to having fun dating is letting go of the past and not judging every new person we meet by our ex. At least you have recognised the problem so hopefully now you can have fun dating again.

Philip is SO right! This is exactly what I’m dealing with. I was married 21 years before she wanted out. Now that the divorce is behind me, I struggle with not unwittingly trying to fit my new romantic interest into the mold of the ex as well as forcing myself to remember that I’m not MARRIED now. I’m DATING. There is a distinct difference.

I actually just a few minutes ago ordered myself a wristband embossed with “STFU” so I can wear it to remind myself not to constantly be spouting “married people” stuff and just enjoy dating.

I think taking things slow is a great idea. Make sure you put your feelings of your ex behind you before you start dating.
