No it wouldn't be so terrible. I think it's a good thing. I did the same thing.


Just make sure you are not "settling" for this guy and take your time.


Hugs to you and have fun!

I dunno. I've experienced the same thing myself and I can't decide if it's a real attraction, or if it's just me, breaking free emotionally from what has been a very rough relationship. It feels great to talk to someone who seems to know and like me as I am. At the very least, I've gotten a stronger sense of self and gained strength. I'm not afraid of the great black hole that I used to think dating over 35 waas.

That said, I've probably torn up this guys number and deleted his email address a gagillion times. (He always calls/emails again, and there I have it). I guess I would say go with it--if you're serious about the divorce, there's no harm. Just don't get too wrapped up emotionally until you've sorted out your feelings for STBX, and given yourself time to breathe. And don't kick yourself if it turns out to be nothing. Accept that whatever it is, it is.

Good luck!
