Discuss the process of returning to the single life and dating after divorce

What will be an ideal response?


The student should assert that returning to the single life for the divorced can be both an exciting and frightening experience. Divorced people need to pass through two stages of adjustment: transition and recovery. The transition phase is a time of loss, separation distress, and decision making about a new life. In the recovery phase, a person feels less stress and begins to readjust. Many divorced people seek to rush into courtship and second marriages due to loneliness, child care issues, and financial problems.
