Dating can be rough. Dating someone who's going through a divorce can be even harder.
The older you get, the more likely it is that you’ll end up dating a divorcee. While this may seem like an odd thing to consider or proof of yet another failed marriage, it’s essential to focus on the positive aspects of the situation.
For instance, dating a guy who’s been previously married proves that he has the ability and willingness to commit to one person. More so, it’s also a sign that he knows what he wants in a relationship.

As much as it can be an overwhelming or awkward experience, try putting yourself in his shoes. If you were going through a life-altering event, you’d probably want to talk about it with him as well. In this case, the best thing you can do is listen to what he shares with you and then move on. Don’t overanalyze what he tells you or get stressed when he seems focused on his ex. Read More…
