Divorce can be a tremendously difficult time. In fact, it is commonly said that outside of the death of a loved one, divorce is the most stress-inducing event a human can endure. To put an end to this grieving process, and purportedly to propel you back to the person you once were, many of your friends may suggest that you find another woman and that spending quality time with her will expedite the healing process. Dating, however, if you have forgotten in your marital days, comes with consequences. Your feelings regarding getting back in the game may range from apprehension to nervousness to excitement. Although it is important to give love a second (or third, or fourth, or so on) chance, it is imperative that you understand that dating again may impact your relationship with your children. Fatherhood, obviously, does not end when your days as a husband have come to a close. As such, this article provides helpful hints to consider when you are contemplating dating again post-divorce.

Question: My divorce was final December 5, 2005 and per my divorce agreement, I am to pay my ex wife 12 monthly payments starting the first of every month. I am making my payments on time however, she is insisting that I owe her for December 1, 2005 payment. She is threatening to file a motion. Does she have any grounds? Answer: I cannot answer your question specifically to the laws of Texas as I am not licensed to practice law in that State. Generally the start date of the Order is the date when the Judgment is signed. You have a gray area if your Judgment does not address December. Since clearly the first was past, you have a good faith argument that December is not owed. I can not tell you anything for sure because the wording of your Judgment will rule, however it is likely she will file the Motion. It is diccult to say how a judge would rule. I suggest you talk to the attorney you worked with to resolve this discrepancy.
