Dear Dr. Roberta,
I’m dating a man who I am crazy about but I am nervous because his wife just left him and I am his first girlfriend. I’ve been divorced for four years so I know what I want, but he is new to dating. Is there a chance this could work?
Nervous, Idaho
Dear Nervous,
There’s a chance it could work, but also a chance that you are his transition woman. Transition women help a newly separated man get over his loneliness and feelings of rejection. Then, when the man feels back to his regular self he no longer needs the transitional help and is ready to look for other dates. Protect yourself and don’t give him your heart and soul and body until you have a ring on your finger.
