Right smack in the middle of a divorce? Feels like a whirlwind, huh?
Maybe you're thinking, "Hey, a little dating couldn't hurt, right? Just to feel normal again?"
Lemme give you the lowdown:
Seriously pump the brakes on dating until that divorce decree is signed, sealed, and delivered.
Because unless you want to turn an already messy situation into a full-blown dumpster fire (and trust me, nobody wants that!), jumping into a new romance too soon is super risky.
Dating while still legally married can impact:
Your legal case (making it messy, affecting alimony, potentially hurting custody)
Your finances (increasing legal bills, arguments over shared money)
Your emotional healing (leading to rebound relationships, delaying recovery)
Your reputation (being seen as cheating, causing social/professional issues)
Your focus (distracting you from crucial decisions)
Get this wrong, and it's not just your life that gets tangled up, but potentially your ex's and definitely your kids'.
It's a big deal.
So hit pause on swiping right. Take this critical time to focus on yourself, your kids, and finalizing your divorce.
Figure out the potential headaches and give yourself space to recover before you even think about looking for 'the one' or even just some fun.
Because if you don't, trust me, it could come back to bite you in the backside way harder than you think!

The divorce papers are signed. Assets are divided. You've started your separate lives.
But you keep wondering, "What's the right way to interact now? Can we ever just be... civil? Or even friends?"
Our answer:
Forget the 'oil and water' myth. Forging a friendship is possible for some, and surprisingly, it can be healthier for everyone involved.
This isn't about forcing a connection. It's about redefining it with purpose.
Think smoother co-parenting (kids thrive when parents work together).
Consider the personal growth from letting go and forgiving.
Value the unique support of someone who truly understands your past.
BUT... this only works if:
You've both taken space to heal first (a "detox period").
You're honest about the relationship you can have (co-parents vs. casual friends).
You set rock-solid boundaries (no late-night calls, no unsolicited advice, social media limits).
Neither of you is holding onto romantic feelings or hoping for reconciliation.
Get it wrong, and trying to force it will just bring back old hurts, toxic patterns, and make things messier than they need to be. It'll come back to bite you!
Sometimes, walking away is the healthiest choice.
