[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm a woman and while I didn't get engaged after divorcing, I did hop back into dating very quickly (within a couple weeks of separating).

Even though we separated on that specific date, I had actually spent the last 3 years in therapy, processing our issues, trying to fix the relationship, realizing he wasn't going to change, grieving, healing, etc. So by the time I caught him cheating again, I wasn't emotional, wasn't upset, wasn't sad, didn't need to grieve, it was more feeling disappointed and then 100% ready to move on.

OP here. Dating I totally get! I've had many friends in crap marriages and I totally understand that you'd be ready to get out there. Especially in your case where you'd done a lot of work on yourself. But if you'd met a great guy and he'd proposed a few months after your divorce, would you have said yes? Or if you were dating a divorced guy and everything was going great but the divorce was still *fresh*, would you be willing to get engaged just a few months after the paperwork is signed?

I personally would not. I am all for people moving on and don't think people have to like stay at home and think about what they did or something. But you just had this marriage fall apart, you're really going to jump right back on the ride?[/quote]
