Spook_City Posted November 8, 2010 Posted November 8, 2010 (edited) I'm new to this site, but I needed somewhere I could come and get some input on this new phase of my life from people who've possible been there before... I'm 27, married in 2003, seperated in 2006 but never filled out the paperwork for a full divorce. Mostly due to neither of us being able to afford it. We had no children at home, and had one daughter who I chose to have adopted. I do still see and speak to my ex, and we are on very good terms. I think of him more as a best friend than an ex husband. A few months back, I met an older gentleman on one of my rare nights out. Within the past month, we'd been getting together for coffee, or to wander the shops downtown. I'm finding myself quite smitten him, both on an emotional and a physical level. Here's my problem though, is it technically wrong to be seeing someone when you're seperated? My ex husband has said that we were both free to persue someone if someone came along that caught our eye, but part of my brain is telling me that, since I'm not actually divorced, I shouldn't. I know there isn't any chance of reconciling with my ex, and I don't really want to, cause our relationship seems better now. And, the only thing standing between my situation and real divorce is money. Is there some sort of protocol on dating while seperated? Edited November 8, 2010 by Spook_City New title
