I would say it takes around a couple of years to get over a relationship and move on. JMO

Thats like saying "How long is a piece of string", my friend!

Its a tuffie, but basically it all depends on how quickly you have moved on, emotionally, from the marriage and divorce.

In very rough terms, Id say a period of at least a year being single again, or just dating your girlfriend, would be a start, before thinking of legally committing again. For both your sakes..

One should wait at least fifty (50) years, in my opinion - but probably even better to wait until another lifetime..........

You know what happens.

You get on an escalator and fall off which makes you feel rather foolish - so why make yourself appear even more foolish to both yourself and others by falling off repeatedly?

No; take the lift instead - or the stairway to Heaven!

Actually met a rather decent chap the other day who'd got divorced just the once many years ago (not three times like me) -
He's been together with his 'new' lady now for 17 years... but REFUSES to marry her!

Wy too many variable to guess a time frame, but I would think someone would at least take a few months or so before they even started looking for a date...I think we all need a certian amount of "reflection time" to gather out thoughts and to look within ourself where things got off track in the last relationship, and figure out a set of standards when looking for the next....JMOcheers

It can take years before you are ready to commit again.

Wait (at least) one year after fully divorced to begin "dating". You need that time alone to be with yourself, and adjust. Being alone for a year is not that bad. Use it to get to know who you are and what you want.

How long to commit? Well after you begin dating...I guess that depends on who you are dating and what you're looking for. Not sure how to answer that question.

I think you should consult your family, especially your children if they are old enough. After a divorce dating should be more of a family decision.

Truth is, all women have committed to someone else already before they demand a divorce. They are cowards in that sense.

That's what the king said when that bloke stepped up to him and tried to explain the concept of trading value in the form of bills.

You're not the first one I've "fooled". I was bright in 1982, but something went wrong in the spring of 83.
