I was so busy attending to my children’s needs throughout and after the divorce that I neglected my own needs. They are all doing really well, however, It has been 11 years and I am so used to being single that I could never adjust to being in a relationship again. I am quite happy but in the long-term, this is not a great situation for someone whose kids are moving on with their own lives. I am looking ahead to a somewhat lonely existence.
My best advice for any divorcee is to wait no longer than a year to get back in the loop or you will become too comfortable being single to want to share your life again.
