[quote=Anonymous]Hi,

I'm looking for some honest answers/advice.   I know this is depends on the individual, but would like to hear from some divorced folks.

I met a great guy and we dated for about 3 months.  He was very sweet, kind, sensitive, etc...   You get the picture.    He was married for 20 years and I'm the first person he dated since the divorce.   We took things very slow and didn't become physical til very recently.  Without getting into too much detail, it was amazing and he seemed more than satisfied as well.  The next morning was fine.  He made me breakfast in bed and we watched movies for a while.

All seemed perfectly fine until I left.  We used to spend hours talking/texting and now we aren't talking.  He finally sent me an email (not even a phone call!) and apologized. He said that being intimate changed things and he wasn't prepared for how he would feel.    It made him question if he was ready to get into another relationship and he needed to figure it out alone.

Normally, I'd say the guy is a player and got what he wanted.  But, he seemed so the opposite of that type of guy.

What do you guys think?   Could being physical trigger some unresolved feelings for his ex?    I've never seem someone shut down like that after what I thought was such a great experience for both of us.   He just completely cut me out of his life.

Any words of wisdom?  How long should someone be divorced before dating?   I definitely will be cautious moving forward with anyone recently divorced.[/quote]
