I hear ya newmama. STBXH never uses the word divorce, never ended our "trial" separation, and never refers directly to the legalities of the legal separation.
And yes, if one is harbouring hope, the lack of clear communication is irresponsible in the part of the WAS.

For the online dating thing, I know that on the site that I'm on it sorts some of the searches according to "last time online". Also, people do look at that and assume the person is not available if they are not logging on.
