Dating After Divorce
Dating after divorce can be difficult when you rejoin the world of dating. In this article we are going to take a look at the main things that can be pulling you back, how to deal with them and how to take on dating with positive attitude.
Take it easy .....
Sometimes singles that have been through a divorce can get back to dating with the wrong approach, like using it to boost their confidence. There will be some confidence gained back from feeling wanted and accepted again, but if the relationship does not out it can make things even more difficult.
For that reason why not try to build you confidence and the believe in yourself in other more sustainable way, by achieving small goals set by yourself for yourself. Like shed some weight if you feel uncomfortable with the way you look and if you think that that will make you feel better. Or decorate a room, take a good friend for couple of days away, eat healthier, find a second job. Any change that you think that will make you feel better and you wanted to do it for a long time.
Achieving small things makes a huge positive impact on us humans because out nature is to achieve new things and develop. So setting up and achieving small goals can heal the feeling of failure left after divorce.
Don’t stop looking for love .....
If you have been through a divorce does not mean that you have turned you back on dating and love but the opposite. Taking it easy means that you will take time to rebuild the image of yourself after the divorce. Think about where things in marriage went wrong, and most important try to accept the divorce, your ex partner and your new life.
Realising that you can come back from what went wrong before, and you can and have things to offer to a new relationship can help a lot.
Going through hard times .....
Study shows that singles in their 40s, who have been through a divorce or never got married, do not want to deal with having a new partner in their life. The reason for that is that they are feeling as grown individuals who do not want to change their habits around other people.
To help you see the positive sides dating in your 40s you have to realise that everyone of us caries an ‘extra baggage’ but is the way that we deal with it that counts. No one leaves trouble free live and we all know this. Having a partner who have been through hard times, and has come out of it or is trying to deal with it now, is someone who we can learn from.
Come out of the depression ......
The best way to come out of the depression and rebuilt your self-esteem is through helping someone else. Become a volunteer, join a charity or start raising money for a charity that is close to your heart. A study shows that volunteers have the lowest depression level of all social groups, so why not join in.
Other positive side of joining a charity and becoming a volunteer is that all charities organise meetings and different activities for their members. Meeting some who is in the same position as you are would be a great outcome.
Leaving the dream life
There is an old saying that love will find you if you stop looking for it.
But you have to be proactive, you have less time to look for it if you have children to raise or have to spend long hours at work, most of your friends will be couples so you have to work harder to find it.
