Love Relationship After Divorce

Behavioral Guide

Christina Sponias
If you recently got divorced, wait a little bit until you get involved in a new relationship, because first of all you have to get adapted to the new situation of your life.

After a certain period of time, you may desire to have another relationship, or it may appear in your life, when you aren't expecting it.

Pay attention to the way you behave. Try to follow these basic rules, so that you'll have a basic behavioral guide:

- When you decide to say something, be careful not to mention your ex husband or wife. Of course, you may not have the initial intention to do so, but it may appear further into the conversation if the subject you're talking about is related to your past. Therefore, think twice before talking about anything that could remind you of your past. If this is not necessary, don't mention what could bring the conversation to what happened when you used to live with somebody else.

- Try to eliminate from your mind the traumas of the past and don't bring them to your new relationship. Don't think alone about things that are in your memory when you are with the new person. Be with them, and forget your past. Nothing is easy, but you have to fight against this negative tendency. Think all the time that you are beginning a new life. Don't bring with you what remained of your old life. Begin again, from a clear beginning. This is a new experience, totally different from the experiences you had before.

- Perhaps your new partner had a sad divorce like you. Try to understand their fears and show them that you will help them forget their past too.

There are many other details that you have to pay attention to, especially if they have children and if you have children as well.

Be patient when the children don't accept your new partner and show them that they are more important to you than a relationship with someone else, who is not their mother or father. Never let them feel that somebody else is more important for you than they are, because they become very sensitive when their parents separate.

Show them that you want to have their acceptance, and explain how you feel and how you believe that your new relationship will help you live better as a family.

Try to love your partner's children more than you love your own.

It will be better, psychologically for your children, if you don't have new children from the new relationship in case you both have children from another marriage, because they will feel jealous and they are already suffering from your separation, and also suffering because they have to accept your new partner. They don't like this situation and they don't want to accept someone else in the place of their mother or father. Don't make things harder for them.

If you want very much to have a child even though you already have children, help your old children accept the new one with love, and never make comparisons between them: love them for what they are and be very generous, especially with the children of your partner, without forgetting that your own children should not envy them because your husband's or wife's children are receiving your attention more than your own.

Things are very delicate when you are a parent. Don't forget your main responsibility for the life of your children, because they depend on your affection.

Help all children feel that they belong to a big family, where everyone is loved, admired and respected in the same way.
