Actually my wife and I separated, went through the Year, divorced and two years later re-married. Other than that "respondent remarketh not". Regards, Scott

I can assure you that the "repugnance" for your wife will quickly grow-up if you just feel boried and because she will become the every-day obstacle to your life! Personaly I have never felt this "repugnance" toward my ex-wife. I always respect and appreciate her. but when I realized I was in love with someone else (and not just for a temporary pleasure time) I have prefered to talk with her about this. She is not baha'i but in fact it took us more than 2 years before deciding to divorce. Waiting for this "repugnance" between wife and husband look to me the worst way to divorce. I clearly believe we have to think well before to get married, because it's for our whole life. but if it appears we have made a mistake, the divorce is a possibility given to arrange things for both, and I don't think we have to wait to feel "repugnance" one for the other...

So I believe this is one more reason to consider that regarding the year of patience, soonest is the best! Loïc By BOTH parties observing the year, regardless of the cause of the separation, dignity is preserved. I would note also that the only real reason for divorce is feeling 'repugnance' toward one's partner. If the repugnance is only because one 'loves someone else', is that valid? (n a Bahai sense).
