pwhodges:
Divorce can be a tedious and drawn-out process, and dating before the decree absolute (or even the earlier decree nisi) arrives is entirely likely, and commonplace I'd say.
themacnut:
Well, I no longer think it's likely they'll end up in bed together-Dora is still so uncomfortable with even being touched by Jim that he'll be lucky if he can get a goodnight peck on the cheek in. It's like Dora's been channeling Hannelore, at least as far as Jim's touch is concerned.
And yeah, his "jokes" aren't helping matters any, he really needs to quit it if he wants a second date. Seems to me he's been out of the dating game a long while, hence his being so bad at it (which stands to reason if he's just coming out of a long-standing marriage).
EDIT: Also, dating before the divorce is declared final may be common, but the way things are going here, if it turns out he wasn't joking about that it may be the final straw that makes Dora run away screaming into the night, never to talk to Jim again.

I'm more than a little surprised that you entertained the idea to begin with, honestly.
themacnut:
Figured Jeph might do it to mess with the forums, to have everyone on it "caterwauling" as he said. But at this point that development would make no sense considering how the date's been going.
pwhodges:
But people do make really bad decisions (I mean Dora, not Jeph).
