I got divorced a year & a half ago (my wife divorced me, I didn't want the divorce) and haven't started dating, yet. I don't know if I can trust a woman, again, but, I miss the companionship that comes from a relationship. Am I "normal" and how do I get back into the dating scene?

it takes different amounts of time for different people. it can take people longer, if that is what you mean. ok, suppose you never dive into the dating scene... wouldn't you regret that? you only have one life, so go have some fun. you got your heart broken, so just go on some light-weight dates without being serious. just have some fun!!! you deserve it!!!
next time you see a girl you are interested in, ask her if she would like to get together sometime... just dive right in. scary, but worth it.

Your normal just like the rest of us. Being rejected and hurt is extremely painful.
You need to stop looking at it as if you are out to order a new bride at the local bar. Just go out as friends. Look for someone who has the same likes and hobbies you do.
Try staying busy and going out. Getting involved in your local community, volunteer. The more you surroud yourself with people the sooner that special person will come along. It will happens when you relax and are not thinking about.
Stay busy!

If you miss the companionship get a dog. They're more loyal than women anyday.
If you miss the physical companionship, I'm sure after your divorce you'll understand that prostitutes are more cost-effective.

Say something like "hi" to a woman you find attractive and talk. Do that alot. Eventually you will find a relationship someone and in the process, make a few friends. Cant have enough friends ya know.

First step is to stop holding the torch for your wife.
The secound step is equally tough. However, maybe you simply havent met anyone you particularly care to spend time with. And the lack of which if just now beginning to get to you.

Hang out in places where you can meet single women in a casual way. Go shopping for groceries or to the beach for a swim. Just relax and have fun whatever you decide to do.
