Men..if a lady tells you she is divorced on date 1 do you want to know the details on that date itself or do you think you can chat about it later on. When I talk about it I usually say 'I left my ex last year due to domestic violence' but I feel like sometimes that might be a lot to say at once?

Honestly share as much as you are comfortable with not how much you think we should be comfortable with.

That’s a horrible situation and I’m sorry you had to go through it - nobody should. If you want to mention it on a first date that is okay. If you’d prefer to just say that you are divorced and want to have a deeper conversation once you’ve been on a few dates, that is also okay

I would want to understand some details but would usually be socially aware enough to not ask too many questions on the first date

Agree on bringing it up on date #2. A guy I was most recently seeing told me his last relationship was abusive and he gave me the space to ask questions about it without me overwhelming him.

I think it’s okay to state you are divorced , that’s what I did as a male . The other details I would wait to flow naturally .

Why are you so concerned about this Op ?

I guess because I want people to know that I didn't just wake up one morning and say 'hey I don't love you anymore I'm leaving you' but had a legit reason. And I'm from the South Asian community and some of the guys are just so judgy. I've had a hard time with it.

My natural instinct is to assume rejection if I have conflict with a partner or don’t think my feelings are reciprocated. I’ll try to bring it up with them, but I’ll say “if you want to end this feel free” so it doesn’t hurt me (and they can say what they really mean instead of sugarcoating). Someone told me today that they just assume I’m not interested because I always seem to “run” but I’m not sure how to bring up problems/feelings otherwise. How do you approach these hard questions?

I don’t think people understand what the difference between conservative and liberal judicial philosophies are. Liberal judges see the Constitution as guidelines for the court to interpret and then cement things into law that they deem reflect the current mood of the day, essentially serving as a tool for policymaking outside of the legislative branch. Conservative judges see their role as interpreting what is explicitly in the Constitution and that there are explicit constraints in it (cont’d)
