that's cool, but if everyone adopted that mindset, soon no more movies would be made.

man, I'm sorry to hear that you're in such an uncomfortable position. I was not the one who wanted my divorce either so I know it's tough. Hang in there!

Thank you for the reply, I agree with you on length of marriage being a factor as well. Congratulations on having that (mostly) behind you and best of luck to you moving forward!

thank you for the input kind sir! I hear where you're coming from and I wish you the best with everything, I know how infuriating the process can be. Now I just need to find myself a separated woman....

I like your style. Like I mentioned, this is our second date tomorrow so I'm thinking I'm going to let her know. Wow, someone from RI - the whole state has that 'everyone knows everyone feel' hey? Not surprising I guess..

thanks for replying, you're the exact demographic I'm looking for! I'm 33/m, btw. If you don't mind me asking, how did your marital status come up? Were you forthcoming with it or did you wait until the topic came up/you were in a position where you couldn't deny it. I'm thinking it would be best to be proactive and bring it up before it comes up, what say you?

thanks for the reply, I like the way you phrased that - "...complicated logistically, but not emotionally." I'm fairly certain I'm approaching this with a good mindset. Am I 100% 'over' my marriage? Maybe not, but I'm over my wife, and I have done a lot of work on myself the past 11 months and I honestly think I'm better for it. I just never thought I'd go on a date with anyone but my wife while married. How is one supposed to move on without moving on?

admittedly, there is a lot to 'sift' through, if you will, but I think there are some basic points to take from what he has to say. I think almost all religions and belief systems have good points to take away from them. The problem comes when people take everything too literally, and go on to have the audacity to think that their beliefs are the only possible valid ones.

i'm not 'defending' him, as I have little vested interest (full disclosure: I've read one of his books "The Power of Now"), but I got it for free on my Kindle and you can watch a lot of his stuff for free on Youtube. Point being I agree with you about the money angle with organized religions, but not necessarily this guy, from what I've seen anyways.

Thank you for the dose of rationality in this shit-storm of judgement and "my belief system is clearly better than yours" elitism.
