Hmmm.

I’m always curious about how people go about dating after ending a long term
relationship/marriage.

Even if you don’t believe the rumours (that they started up before her and Brady ended) a baby a year into a relationship is wild.

But she also looks like the type not to consider abortion an option so she would continue an unplanned pregnancy, if that’s the case.

I get the feeling it was planned TBH don't ask me why

" a baby a year into a relationship is wild."

Not when you are 44

I think they’ve known each other awhile? He probably wanted a kid.

I ended my 15-year marriage and was ready to date literally the next day. I spent the 2-3 years prior to it actually ending realizing the trajectory we were on and coming to terms with it (while still in therapy trying to fix it) and the month prior doing the Camino de Santiago and grieving what felt inevitable and impending. I got a lot of shit for how quickly I "moved on" but most people don't know or understand the circumstances leading up to when things finally break.

I bet it’s also really easy when your spouse wasn’t around much to begin with. Tom had a career that had him away from the home a lot. Gisele probably has been “alone” for a long time before the divorce

It's a common refrain that when women end marriages, they've already been emotionally separated for years.

[lone_concertina]

And the men act like you blindsided them because they refused to see how unhappy you were!

[ahkna]

You see it over and over and over. Men are always whining about women filing for divorce on twitter and try to use it as a negative but I love it. If you're not happy in a marriage, get divorced - it's a genuinely great solution!

[alquilaunhombre]

And when some men end them too

[and27begins]

I've seen that - one tried to hang on until ... the 'last straw' that get them end it --for their mental health. People may look at the 'last straw' and goes 'that's it? that's no biggie, I have fights like that' BUT they have no idea and don't know what goes in those years, the build up. :\

Camino de Santiago - how was that?? That is on my list someday <3

[lone_concertina]

It was incredible! I did the Portuguese route and did not enjoy the Spanish part of it (too commercialized) and if I could do it all over again, I would have walked to the border on one route and followed the river Minho to where the other route goes back south. Portugal is the most wonderful country in the world and there's SO MUCH to experience along the paths!

[anterrabre]

I hear you. A lot of times when people end relationships they have emotionally "clocked out" ages ago, especially women. After a certain point you're just done and fine tuning your exit strategy.

[ursulavosyem]

Don't mean to gloss over the gist of your comment, but which Camino path did you follow, and did you arrange things yourself? Or did you use a company that arranges things for you so there is less to coordinate? Any recommendations? I've been intending to do the Camino for years, but I keep prioritizing other life events/issues, and I feel like I need to finally make this a priority to just... grieve some things. Not that I can't process those things without that experience, but I do want to try this.

I followed the coastal Portuguese path but loved my time in Portugal so much that I added an extra day by following the Minho to Valença to join the central path there. The Spanish/Portuguese border is where the 100km minimum to get the compostela starts, so the vibe shifted there to a more crowded and commercialized version that I personally didn't like at all. (I would have turned around and walked back the other way had I known how much I wouldn't like it

[ursulavosyem]

Thank you so much for this information! I am aiming to end in Santiago de Compostela the first time. I do love to read/listen to others' experiences with these routes, though, because I learn so much about options, and freeing up my thinking. I keep thinking I have to do things a certain way, but reading your response gives me that boost to just go where I'm led in the moment. Thank you again.
