I probed further and she is definitely interested in me. I don't know how to take this. I'll do it if she drives all that way, but I don't think I should. It's very flattering to think that anyone wants me in any way that badly. She isn't divorced yet. He's been abusive and neglectful to her for quite a few, 6 or more, long years and she's finally tired of it. He's also been a cheater, multiple times. If it's only for sex, cool, but I don't think I want more than that. I feel dirty. I don't feel in the least like I shouldn't or won't but know I probably shouldn't. What does this say about me? Have I lost respect for marriage because mine failed? Does this make me a toy? Or a slut? Or a nihilist? Am I disconnected to what I should feel and do? It was almost exactly a year ago that I threw my wedding ring away in the hospital when I was then certain it had to end. Is this because I still have anger? Am I just horny? I had an f-buddy but that's kind of going away because she wants real involvement and I don't. I know there's all kinds of wrong going on in me. I'll talk to my therapist tomorrow at the appointment, but would greatly appreciate any input.

First thought: on the rebound? What are the rules of thumb regarding relationships formed on the rebound?
