The ink is dry on your divorce papers. Should you date or should you wait?
So, your divorce is final, and the realization of your new-found freedom came rushing up on you like a locomotive. That alone is a lot to adjust to. But once you've settled into your new status as a single woman, the next question isn't easy, either. How soon is too soon to start dating again?

Does it ever feel like getting a date is nothing more than a pipe dream? If you’re like most women, your main objective in dating is to find a suitable companion that will truly appreciate you for who you are.

This woman appeared to be confident, sexy, and spoke highly of the men she was dating. In fact, she even said that she didn’t have sex with all of the men. She was simply enjoying the opportunity to date, to meet new people, and to have new experiences.
