Why not a good idea to date if you a working on being a healthier you through GAL'ing and detaching and the D is inevitable? This is what I wrote to another poster who had heard from a self help group regarding D that one should wait one year for every four years of M before dating:
So if I'm married 24 years, and I file for divorce (let's say my wife cheats on me, and refuses to end it), then I'm to not only wait until my divorce if final, but also another SIX YEARS????
