Thanks, aparajita. Forgot about that one. It was part of my last desperate attempt to win her back, I guess. Poetry was how we came together, so figured... Ah, anyway, the written word can only do so much.<BR>

Dating after divorce is definitely strange. The experiences you want to share most are the ones no one really wants to hear about. And how long until it doesn't feel like cheating?

chris:  how long??  too long is what i fear the answer will be.  i am 10 yrs out (hello, my name is aparajita, i've been single  and celibate for 10 yrs *applause from the group assembled*) and just now getting back into the idea of dating (note the word idea).  i still feel as if i am sneaking somehow even though he lived with his slut before the divorce was final and married his slut 3 weeks after the papers dried.  their marriage has now lasted longer than ours.  go figure.  i hope that for you and others you are able to compartmentalize it better than i did and not wait so long.  for me, it was the right choice...  for you...  maybe not.

...Yeah, there's nothing wrong with pornography or the porn industry, yeah... let's just accept everything as NORMAL and none of our business.  Yeah, it's ok, all is well!<BR>
