Like I said in your previous q's, it is pretty stupid.  If you were going to get a divorce anyway then why didn't you get a divorce first before going back into the dating scene?  The reason I said to divorce first is to avoid the very complication you are in now, which, as you stated, your wife wants to get back with you.  \n\nAlso, keep in mind that you are not being fair to the person you're seeing.  You are dragging her into your drama.   If you want to date other people you should start with a clean slate.  Divorce first.

A divorce itself if a simple procedure that can be done in 3 months.\n\nWhat takes the time is the finances and children matters, which can run on for years.\n\nIt is usual to avoid finalising the divorce (ie applying for decree absolute) until financial matters are concluded so that can stretch matters out a bit.

a legal separation is a formal separation on paper, which divides assets, creates a schedule for kids, etc like a formal divorce; however, you are still married.  A divorce can be filed without any separation; in his state, once the divorce is filed, 6 months wait must pass before the divorce is finalized.   God bless you.

Sure you can... but the legal date of your marriage will be that of your "first wedding". My husband and I were married by a justice of the peace, 4 years later we were married in the church. We even went through prekana(sp?) classes to do it. It was great to renew our vows and profess our love for one another again. Congrats & good luck:)

Two weeks is a short time.   I have been separated for two years now and my divorce should be finalized in two weeks.  LOL... it is always two weeks.  I still don't feel ready to date yet, but I am.  What ya gonna do?  Turn down people when they ask you?  Where have I met people, lets see... at the grocery store check out lane, at the car dealer waiting for my Van to be repaired, at Johnny's New York Style Pizza parlor, my neighbor, on yahoo... gosh, everywhere.  Only go out tho when you are ready.  I worried for the longest time that I just wanted to go out with guys to prove that guys would still find me attractive.

I was divorced & remarried after 3 years. \nI have now been remarried for 26 happy years. \nA marriage has to be worked at. \nThere are always going to be bad times but the trick is to work through them together & to support each other.

Even if she wanted the divorce and she no longer loves him, (which is unlikely because you can not turn off all your feeling that quickly) she probably is not ready to date.  There is a lot of remorse and even more guilt that goes along with asking for a divorce.  Even though she may have wanted it she still has to mourn the loss of what was and what might have been. Then she needs time to heal and to totally let go as well as time to work through the guilt and begin to build up her confidence again.  Don't rush her, you do not want to encourage her before she is ready and before she has moved through the recovery steps.  She may need somewhere between 4-7 years.  i know it sounds like a long time, but unless you have been through a divorce yourself you can not know all that is involved and it doesn't matter who wanted it it just takes time.

I BELIEVE THAT IT IS 6 MONTHS AT A TIME...I HAVE FRIENDS THAT DO THIS EVERY YEAR AND GO TO ARIZONA AND THEN GO BACK AND IT SEEMS THAT THEY SAID THEY HAVE TO GO BACK FOR AT LEAST 24 HOURS AND THEN THEY CAN COME BACK AGAIN. YOU WILL GET THE BEST ANSWERS FROM THE AMERICAN INS ONE WAY TO MAYBE SPEED THINGS UP IS TO COME HERE TO HIM GET MARRIED AND WHILE YOU ARE HERE FOR THE 6 MONTHS HE CAN FILE FOR YOU TO STAY BECAUSE THEN YOU WOULD BE HIS WIFE

You must be a resident of the place where you get divorced.  Then you are bound by the laws of that jurisdiction, for the divorce and for any subsequent orders child support etc.

it can take months or even years, but you really should ask a qualified divorce lawyer in your area.  If you don't have one, get one.

You cant just be considered married...(in America)...you must apply within local state and government laws for a commonlaw marriage first. If u lived with someone, u cant just go apply for a commonlaw marriage and expect previous time to be accounted for in the agreement. The term for commonlaw marriage does not begin until the next full day after application acceptance. Commonlaw terms range anywhere from 2-7 yyrs in the USA, depending on the state.

If he was still married when he "married" you, your marriage may be invalid and you won't need a divorce. See a lawyer- laws vary by state.

My parents waited for 5 years before having kids, which I think was a good idea. If you get divorced in 3 years, there are no kids mixed up in it. Plus, you'll never have much private time with your spouse until the kids grow up and move out.

Divorce is regulated by where you get divorced, not where you get married. You are married regardless what you did with the marriage decree.

You never know if it's the right choice.  I think you know that it's what you want when you decide that you have to save yourself from the situation your in.  As long as you think you can keep living the way you are or think things can be salvaged then you don't to be divorced.  If things are bad enough that you say no more & you want to start living your own life again...then it's time.
