Can a married women date if she is separated form husband?

Question

Would it be cheating? And what would be her reason to date, if she is separated from husband?

For the married couples out there, how do you know if your ready to separate, or get an divorce?

Answer 1

You know when there is nothing left to salvage.

You sound like you got an itch in yur panties, if your needing to date right away.

I'd say 6 months is a good time to date, after seperated.

Answer 2

I think it all depends if the seperation is ending in a divorce. My first husband cheated on me and left me for another woman. I was in the process of getting a divorce and I started dating. If you know for sure that it is ending in a divorce then I say go out and have fun. If it is just a seperation for both of you to get your thoughts together then I say wait. If you do date someone be careful it could be only because your on the rebound. You do not want to get hurt again. Take time for yourself and do the things you once enjoyed by yourself.

Answer 3

Sure, once a man and woman have separated they can start dating other people again. I've been separated for more than a year now, my ex lives with his girlfriend and I have recently started dating again.

Is it cheating? That really depends on the couple. My ex and I separated because we no longer intend to have a relationship (except that of co-parent). You can't cheat on someone you are not with. If, however, you separated as part of an attempt to work on your marriage or something I think the other partner would view it as cheating and it would certainly put an end to any reconciliation plans that were being made.

As for what her reason to date would be, mine is simply that I do not intend to stay single forever-more. My ex and I are done, time to move on.

Answer 4

This is a loaded question. It depends on your religious beliefs. And whether or not it is a legal seperation or if ya both just moved on and went your seperate ways.

I am legally seperated. Which where I live is the law. You have to be legally seperated for one year before ya can get a divorce. There are exceptions I believe but to be honest I dont know the particulars. After a year of legal seperation my divorce will proceed. But in my case we filed uncontested. We agreed on what went with who and the kids and any monetary issues.

I am dating now. I do not feel as though I am cheating. Our marriage issues were resolved. And now its just a technicality on when the divorce papers come in. Its a foregone conclusion.

Answer 5

It sounds like your marriage may or may not be finally over.... and you are trying a trial separation while you and your husband sow your oats and decide what will be best for one another. I will assume there are no Children in this marriage since you did not mention children... I say it's okay to go out with somebody and date, as long as there is no physical hanky panky, that would include kissing... if your still married anything more would still be considered adultry. If a divorce is eminant and is definitely going to happen, and you should meet somebody who makes you want to get naked....I say you wait as long as possible until the divorce is final, but if its going to happen anyway, then you may have no choice but to let nature take it's course (intercourse) if you feel you cant avoid it. Technically, as long as your married I dont recommend "fooling around" unless you BOTH KNOW the marriage is definetly over, then you have no choice but to try and fufil your own happiness.

Answer 6

If the relationship is over, and you have discussed reconcilliation and it is not going to happen, you are free to do as you wish. You do not have to wait for a final divorce, that could be a long time in the future. People have seperated and never remarried, which is the only reason to formalize the divorce piece. Reasons to date by a man or a female are pretty obvious, companionship etc.
When do you know it is time, that is a hard one and everyone's situation is different, only the couple can decide.

Answer 7

Not legally no.If you want to do it right,get a divorce.There is no reason for you to date before you are legally divorced.Unless you feel that you just have to have a man in your life.Separated is just that,It is not final until you get a legal divorce.In my opinion,it would be better for you to be on your own for a while after your legal divorce,so that you can get your life back together first.Then you can make a clear decision on whether you want to date and not let the emotions of wanting someone in your life right away dictate what you do.

Answer 8

Your apt to fulfill a guy it quite is comparatively like your dad and not are conscious of it for the clarification which you on the instant are actually not used to what's widespread. your loved ones is dysfunctional and you like a guy who's extremely with none characteristics of your father you're abused by potential of potential of the two your mothers and dads and have no concept what widespread quite is. i'm hoping on your sake which you progression on your person as quickly as you ought to and spend an prolonged time transforming into who you quite are without the end results of the two mom and pa. A therapist isn't a undesirable concept by potential of certainty they are able to help the actual you come out and loose the undesirable results of your previous.You deserve a happy existence and a existence-time of peace and that i'm hoping you get it.

Answer 9

If you're just separated, not divorced, you dating would give your spouse grounds for divorce due to adultry. Not a good route to go.

Answer 10

If you are still married, it would in God eyes be adultry.

I can't believe all these loosers on here are telling you to date. Don't these people have any morals? If you date and have sex while separated (that means your divorce isn't final) then you are committing adultery. Doesn't that mean anything to anybody anymore or can't you control the "itch" in your panties long enough people?
