Referring to what I bolded above, there are no such questions on the I-130, but yes somebody will be curious and you may be called on to explain at some point.

I got this note from NVC  today after submitting the inquiry to withdraw: 

 

Your petition has been returned to USCIS for administrative action and is no longer at the NVC. Further inquiries should be directed to the USCIS by telephone at 1-800-375 5283, or via the internet at www.uscis.gov.

A petition can only be actually withdrawn through USCIS.  You ask no question, but now a formal withdrawal letter, simply from and signed by you is all that is needed for the old case.  You can file a new one at any time.  What will happen with the new case depends on the details of the new case.  Some concerns have already been expressed, including the fact that you started a new relationship before your divorce was final.  There are no direct questions about that on the I-130, and there is certainly no prohibition from doing so.  You will be required to indicate the when, and who of your first filing and the outcome which simply "Withdrawn after divorce" The new new case must stand on its own merits.

Here is my situation:

 

Got married and application was approved and sent to NVC and things didn't work between us, we got divorced and the divorce was finalized.  After one year i got married again, that's all. Now my old application was returned from NVC to USCIS to be withdrawn.  I will start soon the new application for my current wife.  Where is the concern here?? Like it is forbidden to get married again after one year of a finalized divorce?

You did not directly say it.  You've never directly addressed (in this thread) whether your relationship (not your marriage) began before your divorce was final.  Whether it did or didn't, is a technicality that is relevant.  Another poster alluded to that possibility and your response avoided addressing the issue directly.  That's easy for you to clear up if you want.
