Sympathy all around?

I can't even imagine how awful the stages of divorce must be. It seems like for everyones step forward, there are two steps back. I think a law should be passed that keeps anyone from dating within a year of their divorce to make it easier for all parties involved.

My best friend is finding it strange that her still husband be late picking up his child because he spent the weekend with a woman that barely has moved out of her house with her husband...that same woman that wants sympathy for starting a new life.
