Tips for dating a divorcee?

I am dating a 21 year old Marine. He is recently divorced due to the fact that his wife cheated on him when he was in Iraq. Because of her cheating, he has trust issues - especially with women. He's told me that every day his worries about me being unfaithful get a little better. I've told him to no end how I've never cheated and never will. I care about him deeply and want this to work. There were no kids involved in his previous marriage, and he comes from a loving family. Aside from his trust issues and the fact that he's a hardened Marine, are there any other things I should worry about? Does anyone have tips for dating a new divorcee?

You don't say how long he has been divorced, or anything about how hard he took the divorce. Those are two big issues. Some people who have been cheated on will take two years to heal the wounds. By that time he may decide that he is looking for something else in a relationship.

You may have to face the possibility of being his rebound relationship. You know - the one that helps him get over the ex only to realize that he has changed and is now looking for another type of woman. Be very careful with him. Keep showing him that you are worthy of his trust.

Don't push. Between the trust issues and having a bad experience with marriage, you're probably best off letting him set the pace with regards to building up trust and showing him what a relationship can and should be. He will hopefully eventually realize that you're not her, and the trust issues will hopefully resolve.

Good luck!
I just think that ,if u love him truely means it dosen't matter at all,but if he as a single doubt on u means there will be a problem,so i suggest that u dont worry about that and its in ur hands to decide.if u think that u can overcome everything means u can,and best of luck.
you took on a big challenge, marine and divorced...not easy, your gonna have to find ways to calm his trust issues...and hes been trained not to take things for granted so its not going to be easy...communication is your best ally, and him feeling what you say is true, not just words...patience and communication over time should work in your favor....stay strong
