It feels like gender role-reversal for one woman who wants her dates to go home after sex.

But THAT is topic for another post. In the meantime, let's be sure to stare down guilt and see the truth that lies behind it. You don't have to beat yourself for it, ladies. You're in new territory and you aren't the same person you were while married. It's OK and even normal, to not want to spend the night—or all weekend—with a guy you're dating. It indicates you're finding fulfillment and joy outside the company of a man. And you're allowed to draw until you're ready for 'more' in a relationship.
