Love and dating thread for the divorced, don't enter with yer crap

[Capt Dizle]

Guy A reports the her arms, the shape therof, and such drives him to distraction.

Guy A needs to stop staring at Girl B's arms long enough to figure out a way to get her self-confidence up.

If she is Girl B who is Girl A?

Just wait until you... I mean Guy A is actually divorced before doing anything.

Just curious but why ?? In Canada everything is no fault so you could sleep with every lady in a 10 mile radius and it would have no impact on the legalities. Is this different in the States?

If its emotional, I don't think the actual final divorce decree changes much . .. either you are ready to date of you are not and 6 weeks is very little time

Personally I wouldn't let teaching her Sunday School 16 years ago stop anything. Go for it. If it turns out to be "too weird" , it probably would never work and you've really lost nothing as long as you are not an ass about it

[Lul Thyme]

Since you named the characters Guy A, and Girl B, why not cut it down to A and B from now on to make it shorter?

[Donegeal]

Ooooo... Established relationship with the parents as equals... Now THAT could be a problem....

Why are you conflicted? Cause you taught her 16 years ago? Its 16 years ago!

Hell, I married my brothers ex-girlfriend!!! Get over it!

Did you really? That must make family get togethers a bit odd knowing your brother has had sex with your wife.

Guy A is really conflicted here.

Just ask her out and see how things go.

[Guynemer]

Go for it.

For what it's worth, I asked out one of my co-interns today, a girl I've had my eye on since July. Pretty much got blown off. At this point in my life, I've been rejected so many times that it's hard to take it personally anymore.

So if you go for it, and it doesn't work out, no big thing. I'm sure there are other former students who would jump at the chance.

Age difference, blue collar to white collar, friendship of guy A to girl B's mother and father, church teachings and such, AGE DIFFERENCE....and the general feeling that Girl B might be overwhelmed by Guy A's image and perceived social standing and financial worth; wheras Guy A would like to think that he could establish a relationship with Girl B on more meaningful terms...I mean, how do you account for that sort of thing. This girl, woman, Girl B; is a darned GEM among the chaff. Guy A sees her as a PRINCESS! But, she is at a low point in her life and thinks of herself as a toad.

Guy A wants to find a way to honorably woe her and at the same time not to take advantage of her circumstances.

Guy A has probably blasted out of orbit in regards to her and is seriously in need of help. Houston, we have a problem.

Dude.

You know what you want.

Just take it, OK?

And be happy about it and make her happy in the process. Women want to know that they are wanted and desired. If she wants to hear that from you and you want to say that to her, then what's the problem?

So what if the situation's perfect? If circumstance and desire shall meet, so much the better!

16 years-difference will mean less and less as the years go by. Do the math.

You're an adult. So are your family and parishoners. Any "harm" that might be generated will be alleviated with the passage of time - especially with a happy and content marriage to show for it. The best revenge is living well.

The game is played differently at this level. Capt Dizle is in his mid-forties, with a (hopefully!) solid history behind him (any kids, Dizle?) While he always needs to be respectful, there's nothing wrong with him treating her parents as equals or friends.

Fact of Life #1: Once you're married, or once you've been married, or once you're older than, say, 24, nobody gives a **** (and, really, nobody gave a **** though you thought they did) about your sex life. We just assume that, if you're an adult, you're getting laid somehow.

It's not like he's just getting out of high school, nor is it like her parents don't know how her "date nights" are ending up. I mean, the lady in question is in her 30's with 3 kids.

The only obstacles I see are the ones that Dizle is creating out of thin air - social pressure? Age difference? "Her parents might not like it"? "I have money"? (still trying to figure that one out.)

This girl, woman, Girl B; is a darned GEM among the chaff.

I don't really know what this means. Genetically modified... huh?

[Dinner]

Not good with metaphors or alliteration I see.

[JohnT]

Who... Dizle?

He's not good with pronouns like "her" and "I", either.

[Shogun Gunner]

Wow. Guy B is jealous of Guy A being able to consider dating, having fun, and... oh wait, my wife just told Guy B that just because he has been married 7 years, that it doesn't change the fact that he is the luckiest person in the world.

JohnT: He's just mixing his metaphors.
