    So you're not into guys with poor short term memory? It should make it easier to tell if they are lting to you.

    The reason why men run so many lame lines and try to "date" you even if they have slept with your friend, sister , cousin etc., is there are SO many women who go for it and embrace it. For every scumbag guy tryin to get you to stoop to his level there are two women out there ready to jump down in the gutter with him

    Yeah. The weaker (lonely) women ruin it for all of us.

    Oh, and I just got another email today... from a guy on Match that was "separated." I told him I don't do married guys.

    He wrote back, "Apparently no one else does either. It might as well be called Rejection.com."

    Like I'm supposed to feel sorry for him?

    Or when I was dating your friend a few short months ago... Worst and yet funniest drunk dial of all time:

    "I know your're my best friend's ex-girlfriend, but... You can do better! I'm so much prettier than he is!" No joke. Oh boy.

    It’s funny you wrote that, because yesterday I emailed the separated guy back, said too bad but that his correct usage of some rare word combinations (he wrote rather eloquently- though I can’t remember what he said exactly) had to at least count for something. He wrote back this morning offering me a free meal and exquisite conversation. Lol. Gotta admire his persistence. And his diction.

    He's not married. You can't hold someone back b/c of their past.

    It is a sad comment on our society that correct spelling and grammar combined with impressive diction are attractive qualities instead of assumed qualities. Sad, but oh so true.

    Separated is still married. It's the legal process of living apart to justify whether or not you want to get divorced or try to fix your marriage. Until those divorce papers are signed, filed, and processed, he's still married in my opinion.

    Um, yeah. Married isn't like body size where "average" in the eye of the beholder. Either you're married or you're not. I get it that lots of people date while “separated.” I’m just not one of them.

    ahhh, technicality. that's what I'll call it. If you're to that point, then it's all but final (99% of the time). But you still can't count someone out. Sure, you don't have to get super serious, but what's it gonna hurt to at least try?

    I dont know if this is just the case here (in UK) but some couples take YEARS to get officially divorced, if ever!! I know a couple of friends of mine aren't divorced after 10 years, and both are with other partners now. I think its a 'can't be bothered' or 'cant afford it' issue.

    You can't even get divorced, without naming reasons, until you are 2 years separated?

    Therefore, as long as a guy is 2 years apart from his ex wife/LT ex I feel ok about dating him. Any earlier than that and I think he's still emotionally attached and on the rebound.

    Most states the longest you would have to wait is a year...and honestly if your marriage has been "over" for less than a year? You're not ready to be dating in most cases, at least not ME. If you can promise to love someone forever and move on that easily how am I supposed to trust you?

    Personally, I won't date anyone that went out or fooled around with any of my friends. Once I see 'her' with one of my bros, she is pretty much tainted for life.
