Psychologists give some relationship advice for women in such a situation. It is useful not only for divorced women, but for others who haven't met their beloved yet.
So imagine that you are a divorced woman and you need someone to support you. The first step in developing a new, healthy relationship is knowing what kind of partner you want to meet. Now it's time to think about it while you are unattached and have the possibility to avoid some clichés based on a specific person.
You can start by making a list of characteristics that you would like to see in your future partner. Your list should include what is important to you in a man, what makes you happy and what seems ideal to you. Don't forget that the attractiveness of a man may fade with time, so this feature is not the most important for a family life. It's better to focus on such traits like sense of humor or skills to earn money.
Now you have a list of ideas for your future boyfriend. The next step is to remember all your past lovers, ex-husbands and boyfriends. What attracted you to them when you first met? What had you wanted to get and what you got in reality? Remember, you wanted a kind, good-natured handsome man and got a bad-tempered egoist whose interest didn't do further then watching TV with a bottle of beer in the evenings.
This time don't be so emotional; it'll help you to get the result you've always wanted.
Psychologists' relationship advice say that knowing what you want before the real meeting will help you to avoid not-so-good variants and to allow someone truly compatible for a possible lasting love.
If you are not shy you may use the help of marriage agencies, in this case many interesting persons will be offered for communication and you'll be able to choose anyone you want to meet and even build a long-living relationship.
