Dating
Posted 11th September 2008 by amanda
My daughters teacher has been asking alot of questions about me for a long time. We have talked a few times and both have been very attracted to eachother for the last 2 yrs. Well since the word has spread of my pending divorce he has really shown intreast. I gave him my e-mail adress, phone number etc... he e-mailed me tonight and we talked back and fourth. He has been wanting to take me on a date for awhile now. I think I might go. He is much older then me. I am not sure of the right age ( how do you even ask that question how old are you, to a older man lol) I just know he is older then me.
I have never been on a real date before. I am real nervous. I married my hubby at 16 so that is why I never dated. I am not sure how to act. I am also kind of shy around men. I hope this turns into a wonderful frienship. I know I am not ready for any type of relationship. I am still married. I am not sure I even want to date becuae of all of my crazy emotions. I do however want to make friends. I am easy to fall into a depression and never go out with any man so if I at least make friends maybe down the line when I am a more healthy mental person LOL after the divorce I will have male friendships that could turn into something more. I feel like the right man won't be pushy anyway and be patient and be my friend.
Dating, wow after 17yrs of marriage who would of thought. I am 32 and never dated sooo crazy. What will my kids think, is it ok that he is her teacher, what will my family think,
I will keep everyone posted on what happens with this new man friend.

As for this gentleman being your daughter's teacher, there may be a conflict. If your children are open to you dating again after their father, then you may want to discuss with your child that there may be an interest in one of her teacher's, let her know up front what is going on, so that she is not put in an uncomfortable situation at home or school, or therfore otherwise.
You may want to sit them down and have a brief discussion about you dating. You do not have to give too much details, just enough for them to understand that the relationship between their father and you is not working anymore, and you are looking to move on with someone else.
Do not cut their Dad out of their life, let them know that no one will be replacing him as a father, but you are looking for a new companion. It may or may not be hard, but you have to think from the standpoint of what is going through a child's mind and how it will affect them also. You must make them happy as well as making yourself happy.
I wish you all the best Amanda, remember, be wise.
