You know you don’t need “permission” to come hang out with us any time you want!
The question of dating is one that the answer will vary from person to person on. It is so very complicated, because its success depends on your own emotions and experiences.
One of the reasons I’m hesitant to support the idea is the letter you referenced from your H. It clearly has had at least some impact on you if you felt the need to address it. Add that to the fact that it has been a very short period of time since you found out about the OWs, and those emotions take some time to run their course. It has only been a week, sweetie…
Myrrh, in all honesty, I would like much more for you to take this time, grieve for your marriage and your husband, strengthen yourself and then move forward. If you can do that, the first relationship you’ll have will be much stronger, and so will you if it doesn’t last. This is also a confusing time for your son…and the less confusion, the better.
Yet, this decision is yours and yours alone. You know better than to leap before you look and I trust you to make the choice that best fits you.
"It is not easy to find happiness in ourselves, and it is not possible to find it elsewhere."
--Agnes Repplier, writer and historian
