How Do I Feel About Marriage?

For those of you who are just following my story, I am in the process of divorce and ending 12 years of marriage. Although, I have some scars and fears from this experience, I know I still have those desires and dreams of marriage and family.

Right now, I'm not in that space for a new relationship or marriage. But I would be open to the possibility, if and when that opportunity should come. This is after my divorce is complete and I've had some time to heal.

It also helped to hear a story from a divorced woman. She said, "I never thought I wanted to be married again after all the horrible things I went through. But then I dated a nice man that made me realize I did want to remarry one day."

It reminds me that when I am healed I need to leave my heart open. I can't let the fear of being hurt make me judge every new guy and situation by the past. It wouldn't be fair to them. Or me.

The exception to early implantation dips theory I have found is that some women get early positive pregnancy tests as a result of having a multiples pregnancy, some women gets dips in many of their cycles that do not result in pregnancy and some women like me don't get dips during a c...
