Introduction: Individuals have numerous options to choose in life after divorce. A group of divorced individuals
prefer to begin a new common life with another person. In the present study, it has been tried to investigate the
internal developments of individuals in the transition period to remarriage after divorce. Method: This study is
of qualitative studies type, and has been conducted by the qualitative content analysis method. The experiences
of 17 people who had remarriage after divorce (8 women and 9 men) with the semi-structured interview
technique were successfully received. All interviews were recorded with the recording device with the
permission of the participants, and after the end of each interview, they were carefully transcribed and, with the
help of the research team, the coding process was performed. Findings: The average age of the participants
was 39.11 years (standard deviation: 8.34). At the end of the research, four categories were enumerated under
the theme of intrapersonal developments, which included the expectation from family reorganization, the
approach to encounter the new situation, the resilience mechanism, and emotional developments. Conclusion:
It seems that remarriage is a process that begins in the last years of divorce and lasts for some time after entering
into a new marriage. During this process, some developments occur within the individual that are sometimes
stable and sometimes transient, but if they are encountered improperly, they may have long-lasting effects. Thus,
education, counseling, and social support can manage the risky complications in the remarriage after divorce.
