Well, maybe I'm not one to give advice on this sort of stuff cause I'm only 21. I'm sure there are others with more experience but my 1st thought was..Well, if she's getting a divorce, I say go for it. You might not want to move to fast though because she may need time to herself because of the divorce. Or she may not be looking for a relationship right after. So I say take it slow and see what happens...

Actually those were my thoughts exactly. For some reason I felt a lot better just for posting this thread, and I was going to delete it, but the computer outsmarted me again.

Yes... slow, see what happens, etc...

Old lady in the house
I say take it slow but don't fade into the background either. Let her take the lead.
Now relax and take a deep breath. She is after all a person just like you. Good luck

I agree wit Ellen. Stay close, but don't pounce. She needs time to decompress. She will let you kow when she is ready.

Just be available, just be her friend.

Good luck!

Thanks for the last two comments. That sounds like solid advice.

I keep telling myself this is not happening, but it is... so I guess I'll just go with it.

i say roll with it.

hey, i was technically "married" when i met my current husband. i just didn't have time to finish the divorce papers between my two jobs. we were broken up, and i wasn't harboring any lingering feelings toward the ex or anything.

in other words, don't harp too much that she is/was married.

The tougher they are, the harder they fall
I got one tough cookie Calabrese Millwright at home, and I still make him that sort of nervous
My advice, is to really get to know her as a person. Try to look beyond the exterior, and into her heart. We women have an uncanny way of detecting if the guy is really interested in more than the superficial. So befriending her would be nice. An ocassional little card, or bunch of violets left on her desk (rather than a dozen roses and a NB-sized stuffed bear.) If she's such an attractive lady, I'd hate to see some other guy swoop down and pinch her from under your nose. So make sure she knows you're interested, but subtle's the word. Having gone through a bad relationship, she'll need a bit of a self-esteem boost, so a few smoldering looks are not out of the question

There's no apostrophe before an 's' when you're talking about the plural version of a word. "I took some neat photo's!" is NOT correct.

Yeah, that is also a good point. I'm not proud of the fact, along with a lot of other things, but I meet this girl off of myspace last year. We went on a few dates and had fun, and ending up... well, you get the idea. Her profile on there said she was divorced, but after the fact I found out she was married still, but she was separated. I didn't feel too bad about it when I found out her husband was in the Marines stationed in Japan and got some Japaneese girl pregnant. I still see her around and we chat, but nothing really happened with it after that.

Don't make yourself nervous- it shows. I have never been afraid to go after what I want because what's the worst that can happen? If she says she'll go out with you then great! If not, what have you lost? Nothing! Go for it dude and good luck!! Fill us in on all the juicy gossip that ensues!

Well, I am in the middle of vacation and I did get an email from her saying she was sorry she didn't write because she's been busy... And hoped I had a merry christmas and would see me next year. Seems like a good sign...

THAT IS A VERY GOOD SIGN. she's interested

Send her an email back and ask he where she would like to go for new years eve. take he out to a good movie, a nice dinner, and if you are into dancing (vertical ) etc take her someplace where you two can get your dance on.

WHOA! Slow down a bit. I see her everyday at work. I want to chat with her a couple of times, and then ask her to go for dinner, or something. I'm not going to ask her out by an email. I'd much rather do it in person.
