Won’t make a difference - just seems more desperate

OP - next year you will look back and understand why. People don’t think you are hung up on your ex at all but you aren’t adapting well either since you are uncomfortable being single and looking to get into a serious relationship quickly. No one wants to be the rebound even in their 50’s

Calm down. You will be ok and you won’t dissolve because you are single. Get yourself together first.[/quote]

I disagree. It is reframing it for the other person. By saying "only" OP is indicating that she doesn't think it is a long time. And if that is the case, OP, you should take a little break or just date casually. But if OP feels her marriage really is over, then framing the situation as "we've been separated since 2017 and the divorce was finalized a year ago" she's set up that she's 3 years out from the trauma.
