Go , enjoy yourselves . If someone you know spots you there , introduce them to him . There is nothing here for you to be ashamed of . If they hang out with your husband they already know about your divorce . If not , there's no reason they can't find out now .

Why worry about what others have to say? If your kids are ok and you’re ok and he is ok well then ok. ?

Unto thy own self be true.

As a fellow Minnesotan, stop being "Minnesota Nice". The old relationship is done....aka you are divorced. Who you see now that it is done is between you, the other person, and your maker and since you are an Atheist that's one less to worry about

Ditto to what is written below. Enjoy! Follow your instincts.

You do what you need to do.

Excuse me but do you really care what other people think that much? If you do than youn need to lose some baggage before dating; keeping it isn't fair to the other party. If not go to the festival and do what come naturally.

Sad that so many people cannot part comfortably, maintaining high regard for one another. The end of a sexual aspect to relationships, depending on cause, doesn't have to mean discomfort.

The other person's happiness ought to still matter if there was all encompassing love to begin with.

My initial thoughts included wondering how it might effect your kids. I'd be interested to know what your kids think. I think if I were in that position, I'd probably also put a lot of weight on their opinions.
