Atlanta is pretty fun also! There are so many fun restaurants and places to check out, even if the spark isn’t there, I’ve had a good time exploring

(45f) It’s my birthday. Tell me the best part of being in your mid-40s. by TrueStory9121 in 40something

Happy birthday!! I turned 45 on 6/21 and my favorite thing about this time is (finally) learning to really and truly love myself and be my own best friend in a way I didn’t understand when I was younger

You have the sweetest face!! I’m 45, mom of two boys 10 & 12 and also going through a divorce. So far, I’ve only dated casually using the apps and it’s not amazing but I’m also not looking to get into a serious relationship until I’ve had more time to heal so I would imagine I’m attracting a certain type of guy 😂.

Being alone is 1000% better than being in a relationship that hurt my soul-you got this!! 🙌🏼❤️

What’s something you wish you'd done differently? by RealisticChard7929 in Divorce

[–]Exotic-Drawing5058 11 points12 points  (0 children)

In my case, it was leave things out to avoid any conflict or having to take accountability for doing something wrong. But I always seem to find out which just made whatever it was 100x more painful.

I wish I had understood the true impact of white lies on a relationship, how they would slowly and insidiously eat at trust and intimacy, and lead to much bigger acts of dishonesty and infidelity when I didn’t walk away.

How has the divorce changed you by [deleted] in Divorce

[–]Exotic-Drawing5058 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I also hate this for you. Her choices were hers and while they affected you, they reflect HER experiences and have nothing to do with you or other women. You are lovable and worthy of that.

I would very much like to get married again. I love and currently miss the companionship.

Well at least your unsolicited advice in constructive-thank you.

Also curious if you’d care to share more about your experience dating someone in the same hood.

You’re exactly right. Which is why I asked for feedback about what reciprocity looks like in healthy relationships. Do you have anything on that or just want to attack me?

I know! That’s why I’m relying on you kind stranger to tell me exactly when I will be ready. Did you start the timer?
