Welcome to Friends Online. How to find a partner after divorce?

Whatever the divorce, it is always a strong shake-up that requires certain actions. In particular, immediately after a divorce, especially if it was painful, it is not recommended to plunge into a new relationship. Taking a short break is necessary to maintain mental health. During this period, it is better to abstract from feelings and understand how you want to continue to build your life. You need to clearly understand which path and with whom you want to go further. If this understanding does not happen, you should not try to build new relationships, otherwise it is highly likely that the situation will repeat itself.

Having gone through all the stages of divorce, and, ultimately, realizing that the stage of accepting this fact has passed, you can begin to move on.

When you decide how you see your future life, ask yourself a few questions. What feelings do I have for my ex? If, for example, even thinking about him annoys you, then the time has not come yet.

Otherwise, if you go on a date now, all resentment and irritation will pour out on your potential man. The ideal answer to this question should be indifference, that is, the absence of any feelings.

Do I really want to spend time with a man? Listen to your feelings. If you start to worry about the prospect of spending the evening with a new man, you are ready. You have to go on a date with a playful attitude. And not even in order to impress a potential partner, but, above all, so that you yourself feel comfortable.

Next, it is important to clear your mind of the emotional waste acquired in marriage and during divorce. In most cases, our ex-partners are trying to fix a far from rosy image of ourselves in our heads, causing complexes and self-doubt. Therefore, first of all, you need to understand exactly what thoughts were instilled in you, as well as what ideas and plans for the future your ex was trying to program you. It is quite difficult to get rid of this emotional burden on your own, so it is best to seek help from a specialist. But first you need to be clearly aware of what you would like to get rid of. Saying goodbye to unnecessary emotions, start fighting your fears. Even if you initially think that the prospect of being on a date with a new man is not at all scary, most likely, inside you there is still a lack of confidence in yourself or that everything will go smoothly. And this is a completely normal reaction. First, when you were married, admit it, you and your husband didn't go on dates that often. So the "skills" are lost. Secondly, you go to a meeting with a person you don't know well. And you absolutely cannot predict how he will behave in this or that situation, or how he will react to some of your statements. Third, there is always a fear of rejection. But here it is important to understand that a date, in fact, does not oblige you to anything. And moreover, you can safely not be limited to one man, but try to build relationships with some, in order to eventually understand which of them suits you best.

After a divorce, many ask the question: where can they find a new partner? When you get rid of fears and complexes and look around, you will understand that there are many free and decent men around. In addition, no one canceled online dating, which is now coming to the fore, you may check these dating websites for seniors in Canada.

First date rules after divorce

No details

You should not tell a detailed biography on the first date, focusing on your past family. The new man will eventually find out everything, but for now it is worth bypassing this topic by answering in monosyllables or by agreeing in advance that these topics will not be raised. Also, don't try to ask the man about his past. You do not know what skeletons he has there, so for now it is better not to stir up the past and not scare off a potential partner.

Don't tell the kids

If you have a serious relationship with a new man, they will get to know each other anyway. In the meantime, do not load children with different names and details, and even more so - acquaint them with potential partners. Even if it seems to you that there is nothing wrong with it, the child's psyche is quite difficult to perceive detailed stories.

Do not compare

The main mistake many women make is constant comparison. Not only will no person like it when someone tries to compare him with someone, but here we are generally talking about your ex and potential men. Just understand: these are two completely different people. Do not try to look for any dirty tricks in those situations that you had before. Do not think over and do not wind yourself up. Let everything take its course. Only then will you be able to understand what a person is.

Don't rush sex

Of course, no one forbids you to sleep with a new man already on the first date, but in fact, most likely, you will end up with nothing but disappointment. At first there will be a surge of endorphins, and it will seem that life is good. But a little later, this euphoria will be replaced by a feeling of loneliness and disappointment. But even if you continue your relationship with this man (although no one can guarantee this to you), it is better to take a closer look at him initially, to understand what he represents and whether you really want to go to bed with him.
