Why am I so confused about what I want in a partner now? Is it too soon? Am I just too picky, or do I need more time to recover from this divorce process? Your valuable input is much needed! Thanks

You don't give details of why you are confused. But I would say after a going through the whole divorce/separation, you are wary of a new partner and that is a good thing. You don't want to go through the same heart ache again, so if things don't feel right you have to listen to your instincts. But if you feel it is too soon to be 'out there' then you should also listen to that... some people want more time before they feel ready, I think it is a personal thing and you will know when the time is right and you will know when the person is right.<p>Oh and deciding on what you want in a partner, write down a list of things that you want, without debate, that person to be, for me that would be: honest, kind etc. Then have a list of 'nice to haves' like he must be a non-smoker, must be drop dead gorgeous [img]images/icons/grin.gif" border="0[/img] etc. Then at least you can get some perspective....<p>Love
