Re: How long should I wait?

Hi singlemom!
I left my hubby 4 years ago... after 8 years together. I was single for 18 months. But when I say single, I mean dating is not the same.
After being in a relationship for a while (8 years) going on a date felt weird. And not too good, the first few times, cause I felt guilty and I didn't know how to act.
But after a while (1-2 months) alone, I started to realize that I was allowed to be out on my own.
It still took a while before anyone started to sleep at my house again (and I mean a while, more than 18 months). I wanted to make sure I felt good before introducing this perosn to my 3 year old.
Now we're getting married (aaahhh!) in June. It feels great.
Follow your feelings. If it doesn't feel right, go home and watch a movie...alone.
