Just to reiterate, I didn't seek out these dates to begin with, quite the opposite, and if it doesn't work out I don't think I would actively search for anyone else right now. If I was in any doubt over whether my M had a future or not I wouldn't proceed, but sitting here it is incredibly clear that it is dead in the water. I agree it's been a short amount of time to move on but it feels the healthiest option for me now.
Leading with your feelings is what waywards do.
Just saying; I am NOT necessarily in the "no dating" camp unequivocally (I think it's okay if both spouses agree the marriage is over, and they notify the other and the two agree on it). But it DOES clearly retard your own efforts to work on yourself, make no mistake.
