I am new to this forum and am newly divorced and I hate it. I never thought it would be so tough going through the grieving and what scares me is that I made a big mistake in doing what I did to my ex-wife. I so want her back and would do anything in the world to get her to at least consider dating again. I am busy making changes in my life and examining what had happened so I don't repeat the same mistakes.

I have asked her in a number of ways prior to the divorce if we could see each other after it was final and in the beginning she agreed but then changed her mind. Still, I honestly believe and feel that maybe down the road a bit after the two of us have spent some time legally apart that maybe, just maybe we can try one more time. There are those that will say to move on, find another lover, but to be honest I will probably go to my grave holding out for one last chance with this woman.

I have never been through a divorce before but I have gone through an extended relationship that ended with calling off an engagement and selling my first home before we had even moved in. I know that the feelings that you go through at the end of any relationship are the same. You have to give yourself the time to grieve properly before you attempt to rekindle anything with your now ex. Given time you may realize that you don't want to rekindle anything with her. Perhaps she has even already discovered this thus the reason she decided not to see you again after the divorce.

Go see a counselor together and see if you can annul your divorce before you marry other people. Don't make the mistake my ex and I did. We want to be together now, after 3 years of pain from an all-to-quick divorce. We've since gotten in rebound marriages and regret it deeply. But we're contemplating doing the right thing and putting our lives on track as we have two young children. Divorce is like death, and you are feeling the effects before she is, perhaps. She will definitely feel the loss down the road....Life is beautiful if you can work through it and grow. Adjusting expectations is HUGE. God bless.
