I've been away for the past little while as my wife and I are going through a divorce.

 

I recently contacted my high school sweetie on Facebook. She's a mother now and she's also going through a divorce.

 

For the past few weeks, we've been messaging almost daily and we talk at least twice a week. Our conversations always last 3 hours or more although nothing romantic was discussed.

 

Because of the regular contact, I'm starting to feel some attachment for my friend and I think part of it has to do with my being vulnerable right now. However, we get along great and I have a lot of fun just talking to her.

 

Last weekend, I had dinner with her and her son. It was incredible to see her again after all these years.

 

Do you think these conversations mean something to her as well? We both have busy schedules so finding 6-7 hours of spare time in a week isn't easy. I don't want to get my hopes too high.

Sounds like you and this lady have a nice little thing going.

 

My ex a few years back was amazed at how intuned I was with her, this is before we had sex. I said in order to make love to a woman, you first have to make love to her mind. Women are like that.

 

Sounds like you are doing the exact same thing. Just keep giving it time and don't push.

Since my wife and I separated, I've really missed having daily contact with a woman.

 

Now I get regular messages wishing me good day or good night. It's quickly getting addictive!

I would be careful at this point. I always say let one thing end completely before moving on to the next. This gives you time to reevaluate things you want out of a relationship before you jump right into the next one.

 

The feelings are good feelings to have though. Having someone of the opposite sex interested in you and your well being is very exciting. I think to her it is more of a friendship than anything. You specifically mentioned that nothing romantic was exchanged. Another sign is that she did bring her son to dinner. Anyone who is interested in a relationship will keep the kids away for a long time typically. This establishes that the relationship is real before bring the child's emotions into the fold.
