I have been separated for 6 months and i am now officially divorced.How long is it proper to wait before I go on an official date.I am ready and willing ,but want to be proper.

what does being proper have to do with anything...times a wasting...on your mark get set GO

If you feel your ready now


Go for it!!!

If you're divorced and mentally ready to date again, go for it. Good luck.

When your mind is clear and you can get througH a conversation without bringing up your ex. every other sentence unless asked too!Good luck .

it all depends on the person. i tried to date someone a week after my divorce but it did not work out. so, just ease into it and see where you land. if you see yourself starting to sink...dinstance yourself and take some time off. it can only get better for you, my friend.

Meh. Properness sucks.

Look, if you are asking this question, then it means that (a) there is someone you want to ask out, (b) you feel ready, but don't know how it will "appear" to her or others if you date now, and (c) YOU ARE OVERANALYZING THIS!!!!

Like Nike always says, "Just Do It!"

when you feel your ready...mentally and emotionally.

amen

How long were you married? How do you feel about your ex?

Do you feel that you really need someone to be with?
Can you just go out with women and not be looking for something more?
Are you still feeling 'crushed' or 'devastated'?

Take your time, you're in no hurry.

I wouldn't date anyone 6 months out of a marriage..especially if it were a long marriage...just so many adjustments and 6 months really isn't very long. Just my own thoughts from my own experiences...

"Sigh". Okay people. He asked this question, and in doing so, he gave me the impression that he "feels" ready to date. That, or he thinks he is ready for it, and he wants to know if there is like some sort of time limit on how long to wait.

Ok. There is no rule book in dating, and as such, there is no law that says when you can or can't date. It is basically your call. You have spent six months single, are divorced, and it is apparent that urge to see what is out there is striking your curiousness. Well, the only way to find out what is out there is to go out and date.

I'm sorry, but you are over thinking this way too much, and it seems you are putting alot of pressure on yourself over this too. I just wonder why that is? I waited almost a year before I dated (after my divorce), and I was ready when I did. I never questioned if I was ready at six months because I had no interest in dating. You seem to have this interest, and so I think you should just figure out if you want to do this. If so, then don't half-a$$ it. Go for it. Meet chicks. Date em. See how fun and crazy they are. Enjoy the ride.

When you feel you are ready and comfortable to get back in the dating scene.

You should wait entill you want someone not NEED SOMEONE! I am not saying thats what you are doing but divorce sucks ones ego can take a beating and finding someone at times can dull the pain.I say embrace the pain,grow from it,be yourself and like a june bug to a light you WILL attract someone!

amazing......I got answers that made sense and from the heart from strangers.......thank you ....I learn more each day in here

Go out and meet people and just have fun. If you end up going out on a date and it doesn't feel quite right-then you'll know. Enjoy!!

You're welcome, hope it goes well for you.
