Nice decision, Petals. I was surprised by how easy it was to get emotionally swept away when someone shows interests soon after going through a hellish end to my marriage. My love bank was at an all time low and craved deposits! But, with time, I realized how irrational and foggy my judgements were for over a year+ after my divorce. Thank God I didn't make any life changing decisions during that time!

I'm glad to see you're slowing down...if we get involved with someone while still technically married, we do the same thing that was done to us. It's important to maintain some boundaries, even if our spouse doesn't. The only thing that comes from an EA while still married is heartache...steep yourself in God's principles and let Him be the husband to you...He will reward you in due time, with what He deems best for you.
