What does that mean on profiles?
Does it mean
'waiting for my decree absolute'
or 'might as well be divorced'
or 'not living together' or what?
And 'almost single' - is that the same thing?

In it's truthful sense, (and of course everyone tells the truth, don't they?) I would take it to mean seperated (physically) and maybe waiting for papers- although not necessarily so.
The physical seperation is the bit I'd be concerned about- if I were seperated I don't think I could be arsed to get a divorce unless it was needed for some legality.

You Welsh or summat?
I would've thought it should mean that you are getting divorced and are closer to it than being married. To me, almost, in this sense, implies movement not just a state.
Alright But!

So.... Let's say...for instance......If i was hoping to get pregnant.. and went about telling everybody.. "I'm ALMOST pregnant".... would it have the same meaning??
I don't think it would. People would look at me stoopid and say..."how can u almost be pregnant"
Married is married.... divorced is divorced.. If you were married but are getting divorced, i'd call that more "Seperated"
i have no idea at all what the diffarence between almost devorced and almost single is, at first i though almost single was for people living together but not married who had split up but if you not married and slpit surely your straight away single? 
maybe its people who arn't married but they ain't told their partner they moving out yet? lol
When i see almost devorced i take it as they married but separated.

..mind you, I'm also a bit Irish, Scot and Swedish from her side too. Good job my dad's side are good English stock, or I'd be one very confused puppy.

And 'almost single' - is that the same thing?
So it would be acceptable to put in my profile "almost swinging"?
I dunno, what does that mean?
I think almost divorced is fair enough. After all, people go their separate ways and live as a single person although the divorce is not still fully finalised.
But I have always been confused about almost single. Bearing in mind the option above, I can't see a reason! If you're with someone but not married and the relationship ends, you're either together or you're not surel?

Just means that I am as vague about whether I am swinging, as they might be about being divorced, single etc

There isn't a "Separated" category on the list of things you can be, and I'm not "almost divorced" because we decided not to go down that road. I class myself as "almost single" because although I see my ex and kids daily, I don't live (or sleep) with my ex.

Maybe they could change the "almost divorced" to "seperated"??

I considered myself no longer married when I walked out of the marital home. I had no immediate need (a prospective new husband for instance) to do the legals and formalise the situation with divorce. It was more than a separation - which can be seen as a trial or temporaary situation.
It takes months or years to obtain a divorce, and about 3 weeks to get married, so there is bound to be a period of "I'm not married anymore in anyone's eyes but the law."
I had 'almost divorced' on my profile before the divorce proceedings were begun because there was no other option that came close to the pratical truth and that I was happy to put about myself.

Because getting almost pregnant is something in the future but getting almost divorced is emerging from something in the past.
The past we know - the future we don't.
