Ive already been on my own for over 2 months. But tomorrow im officially filing for divorce.

I am trying to figure out what I want and to live my best life here. I'm here with family (living in an accessory unit on family property and probably won't be able to move out with how expensive things are here. But im fine with that I get my own space and am close to my grandma who raised me)

I am doing things like taking myself out (I just got thai food today and thinking of the movies next week), loving my doggie, taking care of my trailer, helping my grandma, working, etc. Im trying to do my best to be satisfied with my life and I have an urge to date that im afraid is not actually a want to date but a fear of being lonely.

How do I start a dating life in a way that is healthy? My ex is the only person I've ever dated and the way that started wasn't very healthy and my family doesn't have many great examples of a healthy relationship.

Im starting therapy soon, but in my small town every single one has like a 3 month wait list, so of your advice is therapy please don't mention that bit because it is 100% on my list here.

Advice appreciated both for dating but also on living well post divorce for someone starting over from scratch.
