aking it out of a divorce has a host of post-divorce issues, one of which is getting back to dating over 50 if your divorce found you at this age. It’s hard enough to deal with the aftermath of a failed marriage without having to contend with the prospect of putting oneself back into the dating scene, harsh as it is for someone half the age of a 50 year old, let alone a post 50 singleton.
However with the divorce rate what it is at the moment there are is a pool of divorcees who are a prospective partners and may very well be waiting to be partnered up. Of course there are divorcees who have been too badly scarred by their divorces, but that is not to say that the fate of those who are divorced is to remain un-partnered up so as to avoid the pain experienced in the failed marriage. For dating over 50 need not mean walking down the aisle once more, if anything the experience of a divorce – if handled the right way – could open one to all kinds of insights that will hold one in good stead in a new relationship.
So while dating over 50 for those who have come out of marriages that ended in divorce may not be the first thing they rush to do, it’s comforting to know that with the experience garnered from the marriage that didn’t work comes the knowledge of doing things better when a new potential partner comes along .
