I see that the frequency of something is often directly related to its value. The more you do something, the less it matters.
That's so fatalistic, Crompsin. Mostly, the more you experience, the more you learn.
Since both of you are recently divorced, it's okay for one or both to be nervous and scared. There's no rush to remarry (is there?) so spend as much time as you both need to build trust and a relationship and let go of the past.
My first marriage lasted 8 years, the second 14. The second was great for more than 10 years. For a while, I thought I wanted to marry for a third time but I'm glad I didn't. If the right relationship happened, I would consider it, but I sure as hell would not force any relationship where there's doubt.
