Coach Amy found true love after divorce.

I thought it would last forever. “Happily ever after…the first time around” is the ending of every wedding fairytale, right? But that’s not the way things went. And watching my marriage bubble get busted left me wondering if I could ever find true love after divorce.

I was 36. I had known my (then) husband for over 16 years. He had been an important part of my world for over a third of my life. And suddenly everything was just…gone. I was divorced, alone, marked (or so I believed) by my failure at marriage.

Granted, you’re not trying to rush down the aisle or marry the first good-enough prospect that comes along. But you’re also not willing to waste your time in a relationship that’s not going anywhere. And if you’re over 40, how long to date before marriage is an even bigger consideration than it is for 20- and 30-somethings.

As a dating coach, I work with clients across the dating spectrum. Many are in their late 20’s and 30’s and are looking for their first-and-only fairytale wedding and happily-ever-after.
