Yes, I have had similar experiences.  The first relationships I entered
after separating featured women who had several distinct similarities
to my former wife.  They also had many distinct differences.

At first I didn't realize it, but after I noticed I figured it might in part
be caused by a desire to stay within my "comfort zone".  By seeing a women
who resembled (physically or personally) my ex I was making a strange situation
(going out with a new person) less so.

After 6 months or a year this all wore off - I'm free! I'm free!  |-)

Care,
Peter B
