Should I date a man who is separated??
| Sun, 10-24-2004 - 9:27pm |
Hi,
I would really like some advice and opinions.I met a guy online and we've been chatting for a couple of months. His wife left him in February and they are legally separated. I have always considered a man who is separated to be off limits , because I feel that unless he's divorced, then he isn't 100% free. This guy seems very kind, sweet, and down to earth and he is someone who I think might be a match for me. However, I have huge reservations about meeting him.He seems to be over his wife and wants to move on, but the fact remains that he is still only separated. Any advice about whether or not I should meet him ?? I don't know what to do....

Thanks for the post. I really don't think he would be cheating ! I live in Canada, and the law with his divorce ( non-contested) is that they can't divorce until a year after the separation. Otherwise I'm quite sure he would be divorced already. His wife left him after she cheated on him twice - once with a man, and once with a woman - and is now dating another woman ! He doesn't want her back and just wants to move on. I want to meet him, but until he's totally free..... I just don't know that it's a good idea. On the other hand, am I worrying too much? We've never met ....maybe we won't even hit it off and I worried for nothing. Should I just meet him once and see how it goes? I don't feel that he would ever go back to her. It's just the baggage and the emotional part of it.Anyway, thanks for your opinion :)
