[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think folks are being a little harsh on the OP. She's been in therapy, she's working on it and she says she's not sure she wants to get married again, just wants to date/find a companion. Nothing wrong with that. I agree that focusing on yourself and child is first and foremost. Yes, two divorces will be red flags, but I think if you really have grown and come acriss as grounded and self-aware (not depsrate, clingy, crazy, etc) you will find a companion. It will just take more effort. good luck. [/quote]

I agree.  My mother's husband (she married him 5 years after my father died) was married twice before he married my mom.  He and his first wife were HS sweethearts, had 6 kids and were married 25 years.  His second wife was a huge mistake and they were only married 2 years.  He and my mom were married for 23 years when he died.  We actually knew him when he was married to his first wife.  His youngest son is my age and all his kids went to a neighboring high school.  He changed a LOT between his first wife and my mom.

I have a cousin who is 35 and on her third marriage.  This one looks like it's going to last.  She, too, has changed a lot since that first marriage and her husband was an old friend.

Have hope.  Work on yourself.  Put you and your child first.  You will find a companion, it will just take more effort.[/quote]
