Dating and the divorcee'

Ladies, when you wade in the dating pool as long as I have, you're bound to date your share of the recently divorced. Oh sure, they're good people. Often they're quality guys who've had bad experiences and deserve a second chance at happiness. But I've come to learn that, even under the best of circumstances, this can be a tricky breed.

Granted, I learned early to master the plight of the ex-girlfriend, but ex-wife is a different species. Even if she boiled a rabbit, she still shared his last name. He loved her enough to say "'til death do us part." So you have to be very careful how much you say about her. Even if he's calling her a crazy, manipulative witch, fight the urge to join in. Because the next day he's going to be remembering how she helped him through the death of his grandmother. The weekend they spent at the beach. The honeymoon.

And often you find yourself wondering if it was really all her fault, or if instead of merely being a workaholic, he's emotionally unavailable. Did he learn his lessons, or is history doomed to repeat itself?

Sometimes, even after a particularly good time with you, she calls and wants to try again. And you find yourself wondering if he'll say yes.

Anybody know where I can find a rabbit?
