As a single woman your age, I can tell you that I wouldn't date ANYone who was not divorced for at least a year. And I don't think most healthy women will, either. It is just too soon. And believe me, you won't even realize it is too soon until you give yourself the time and space to really heal, then look back and see how much better, stronger and complete you are on your own.
Aren't you still saying that you are waiting for your ex to realize this was all a mistake on your other thread? What can you offer another woman at this point? Your finances are stressing you out - can you afford to date right now with everything else going on?
You are a newly-divorced father. Get to know that guy.
Unless, of course, you are looking for a fling. I am not against them. But go into it knowing that, and telling your potential dates that, so no one gets hurt.
I am trying to remember...are you the gent who tried meditation and had a hard time sitting still? Might be time to practice that for a while. Settle, get to know the new you. Because you went through a lot of changes along this path, too.
