As 25 mentioned, using someone could happen. That is one big thing keeping me from doing it.
It is just my opinion, but date when you are ready to take another person's feelings into account. My sitch is new and fresh yet I have had an opportunity or two that if I were not M, I would have jumped on. I can't do it though because I wouldn't be able to take the other person's feelings into account and that would make me feel much worse than I already do. Just my 2 cents.
Me: 47 W: 44 M: 3 yrs; 10 years together D (Hers): 2000 BD: 06/01/2017 S: 06/01/2017
We were regularly intimate up until about 3 weeks ago. We were sleeping in separate places, but we were not separated in any other way at all throughout the entire 3 years.
25: My MIL thinks another man will be the most effective way to possibly reconcile as well. I don't want to use anyone. I would only see someone I was legitimately interested in, and of course be totally honest. I'm not the liar/ cheater in this narrative.

I get it.
I am about to date someone I knew long ago. I'm comfortable with him but not sure if the chemistry is there now. (I'll find out)
But I already apologized in advance to him for being the first guy I date after 35 years of m and 2 of dating.
I'm SURE I'll have some weirdnesses. At least I'm self aware, I think...

I am an intelligent, educated woman. I assure you we were not "separated". Was I misled and lied to? Fed half truths? Apparently I was, but separated? No, I wasn't.
I want to repair my marriage and keep my family together, but I guess I'll put some feelers out and date. Hopefully/maybe/ I won't want him anymore when all is said and done.
