You've got several things going on here. First, I wonder about your divorce agreement. Generally if one spouse has been a stay at home, the courts award him or her (usually her) some time and resources to get established. I wonder why your attorney did not include that. You do not say how old your kids are. If they are under 18, your ex ought to be required to provide some financial support. You may want to have one nore go around with your attorney.

As for the new guy - well, some guys are better at communicating than others. If he is not returning your txts, there's nothing you can really do short of stalking him. You should probably just leave it alone and see if he expresses any interest later. The only other option would be a short txt saying how much you enjoy being with him and notice that he does not seem as interested in you. That's his choice, so you'll leave him alone. If he changes his mind, pleas to contact you. Then you really do need to leave it alone and make space in your life for a man who will want you the way you want to be wanted.

I just want to say take your time when you start this dating process. Word of adivce that I give to my self is that I'm not in a rush to be love;love will find you again. So make a man wait until you can't wait no more the more he wait the more you'll get to know who your dating good men have patience.

I wasn't never married but I have a baby-father that did close to the same thing your going through and believe it's hard and it's not easy but try more not to talk to the new relationship about the old one it lacks their interset plus it's like your bring in your old baggage. It's better to talk about it to a close friend or keep a journal and write out your feelings. I hope this help.

I must say that the advice given by Nazya is very good advice. In reading your post, it appears that after a short dating experience, intimacy occurred between the two of you. Is it possible this is when the communication ended? If so, it's obvious this is all he wanted.

I'm single, but my breakup was very different than yours. To this very day, I'm afraid to date. Although I miss the intimacy, the thought of being attracted to another jerk or developing AIDS/HIV because of my need for intimacy is my biggest fear.

With that said, I'm unable to provide you with any good advice because I truly need some of my own.

However, I do wish you luck. If you have the strength to continue, keep searching because there are some good men out there. I've been fortunate to have dated a few faithful and honest men. I simply ended the relationship for other reasons.
