My family called it a rebound, but if that's what it was it's a rebound that has lasted 7 years with 4.5 years of marriage.
I'd call that a unique circumstance in that you broke up 6 months ago...you just happened to stay together officially so to speak.


And wow it looks like I underestimated the times, I should have put more options for over 6 months. They also vary more than I thought they would, as it seems to be 50% of the time you were together to 200%. I expected most to fall within the middle of the options and very few to fall at 6+ months. Though it's only been a day, guess we'll see if things change significantly. As is being indicated by the responses recovery period seems to be a complex matter based at least equally in circumstance as personality characteristics.

Keep the responses coming guys, especially the unique circumstances.
