[quote=Anonymous]I'm divorced and dated while separated.  While my ex wasn't an issue, I was too new back on the dating scene and did not have my wits about me.  I was easy prey b/c my ex was so horrible to me...that anybody with a smile and some compliments seemed like a prize.  I was in counseling and had zero sexual feelings for my ex. It wasn't that -- it's just hard for some to transition from wife and mother to single dating mom.  It was definitely a me issue and had nothing to do with wanting my ex back.  We haven't touched or talked about getting back together since well before he moved out.

I dated someone separated and that didn't work out.  For many of the reasons stated above.  This guy got divorced while we were dating, but he had a lot of issues.  Messy proceedings, he was depressed, money was a major stressor.  We got along well and liked each other, but our timing was definitely off.  Live and learn.

My current BF I met thinking he was divorced.  As it turns out he was separated for just under 2 years and got divorced a couple months after we met.  He was ready for a relationship.  You have to figure this person out and whether he is one of the guys who is ready, or if he's just looking for some companionship while he works his shit out.[/quote]
