How Should I Deal With New Friends and Lovers? The judge will understand that you and your spouse are likely to start new lives after your divorce. The judge also understands that sometimes relationships with new partners may begin before the marriage officially ends. Click here for some important do's and don'ts of new relationships. In any case, the judge will want you to be making your children your first priority. There is a saying (and a feeling) that if you're happy, then the children will be happy. This is true, but only to a point. A person who is out finding himself and building a new life and not taking care of his or her children is not giving the children what they need. And so a judge will want your first priority to be your children, not any new relationship you may have. There is another issue here, and that is the fact that you are having a new relationship while you are still married to your spouse. Judges understand that attractions may exist; indeed the relationship may have been ongoing for some time. Still, the old morality often prevails in the courtroom. In particular, judges tend to judge women who are having affairs more strictly than they judge men.
