Abstract
Despite the many advances in gender policies and in women's conquest of spaces, spaces that
are due to them, but very evaded, they still face resistance to the rise and imposition of their
being as a subject of rights and worthy of all justice and equity. It is no exception to this,
themes such as those that gravitate around divorce. Therefore, when trying to understand the
universe of women who have experienced divorce or marital separation and nurture
expectations of remarriage, it is clear that the topic is scarce in academic literature, making
important affections invisible. This study seeks to shed light on such affections as an
instrument to minimize injustices and imprisonment by so many social devices.We sought,
therefore, to identify the way in which divorced/separated women, who intend to remarry, are
situated in this context, in this gap between past and future, and how they are affected. Which
unfolds into three specific objectives: to give visibility to the affections suffered by the
women interviewed, hidden by social devices; describe how remarriage expectations occur in
divorced/separated women; identify how the interviewees feel affected by society within this
context. For this, three women, aged between 26 and 60 years, divorced/separated for at least
2 years, mothers, residing in the metropolitan region of Salvador, Bahia, who expressed a
desire to marry again, were interviewed. These were chosen from the researcher's network of
relationships. The instrument was a semi-structured interview, whose data were submitted to
Bardin's Content Analysis. The results, observed from three macro axes: affections,
expectations and societies, pointed to multiple forms of affectations experienced by the
participants, making visible sufferings that escape the verbal field and that, therefore, are
paired with many forms of injustice, among them, the economic character, the emotional
damage and the responsibilities and obligations linked to the almost absolute custody of the
children.
