By Tracy Achen If you are thinking about dating during divorce ... You may think that you are free to start a new relationship once the decision is made to separate or divorce.

But it is wise to hold off on the dating scene until after your divorce is finalized for a number of strategic, legal, and emotional reasons.

Even if your husband has carried on numerous affairs during your marriage, he will not think that you are justified in seeing someone new at this time.

All he will focus on is that he has been wronged and will want to seek justice anyway he can.

The partner who went outside of his or her own marriage is now not really trusted by the new partner.

Regardless of the reasons, going through a divorce after 60 can be one of the most challenging experiences of your life.

Imagine falling in love with a really interesting, sexy, funny person—and having them fall in love with you back. Or if you’re nervous about dating again, imagine being perfectly relaxed and self-confident as you start to meet new people. All the sadness, the bitterness, the anger you felt at your ex has disappeared. A unique approach that will show you how to get rid of every block that is standing in your way to happiness. So at first I thought I would host a workshop for couples.

It’s packed its bags and took a permanent trip to the other side of the earth. But then some friends of mine got divorced, and I saw the pain they were going through. I locked myself and 11 relationship and self empowerment experts, plus a financial adviser and a career coach, in a resort up in the mountains during The Rebuilding Your Life After Divorce Retreat.

Whether you’re newly divorced and just trying to get through the emotional pain day by day or your divorce was finalized awhile ago and you’re out there dating again, you’re going to want to read every word on this page.

By the time you’re done reading, you’ll discover a proven way to find hope and learn to love again.
