Q: I'm 30 years old, recently divorced, and I'm just starting to get back into dating. Let me first say that my marriage ended very similar to Ross' s 1st marriage on the TV show "Friends"- it turned out that we both had too much in common-women. Ok, all joking aside, it's really difficult to tell girls that you like and who like you that you're divorced, and even more awkward to tell them the reason why I'm divorced. I've been talking to this girl a few times and we really have a lot in common, but I feel like I waited too long to tell her that I'm divorced. How do I break the news and do I fill her in on all of the details as to why I got divorced? What type of reaction should I expect? Thanks for the advice.
A: Unfortunately, divorce is way too common nowadays and it shouldn’t scare anyone off. I can see why the reason part is awkward to talk about. If you’re into the new girl though, and you think it’s longer term than a few dates here and there, then you should tell her. Just be upfront and a little jokey about it. She should be ok and appreciate the honesty and vulnerability.
