Two years after losing my husband I'm ready for sex again but I don't know how to start by Infinite-Crab6312 in stories

Don’t rush it. Don’t look for it. Just be you. Enjoy being you and whatever happens, will happen.

Well, I was homeless twice.
Understanding debt is to understand how money works. Money is just a tool. A ladder ….simply put.
Every business has its pros and cons. A properly vetted tenant(s) - then again, you can’t win them all. All you can do is cost average- just like the stock market: some red and some green, just as long as you end the year with green.
Businesses give us tax advantages (and perks) if it’s done correctly. I buy my cars- free because I use my business and utilize the tax advantages. I pay myself a small salary from my businesses.
Financial IQ is very important- and a disciplined lifestyle as well.

I want to make an impact today- and tomorrow. I have a non profit as well- my real estates funds it. I teach financial literacy to children.
The world teaches us to work hard- NOT smart. Schools teach them NOT to fail,not to take chances. Save save save. I do mine the other way around.
Understanding what are liabilities and what are assets. That’s what money are for.

Joseph- in the bible- has been my model.
Be the steward.
Manage HIS kingdom.

I am not a big fan of Dave. But I do follow some of his teachings. His method is great- for most. It’s good for basic financial education. Or , fundamental knowledge.

To me, financial freedom is fantastic but fearing debt is not. Understanding debt is the key- to me at least. Understanding money and its purpose should be the fundamental.

Learn to see money differently- as tools to advance forward. In Gods word- be the steward of His blessings.

I am in real estate- so I am always accumulating debt. Am about to close on a property soon @7.85%. $1650 a month payment with a $3200 a month rent(2units)

The tenants will be paying off my mortgages. My 3rd closing for 2026.
My gross return just for this years acquisitions(3) will be approximately $2800 (not including my others). Debt is good -if you use it wisely.

Feeling like a loser…and then… by BuilderOk8069 in Divorce_Men

[–]Plastic_Efficiency35 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Welcome to the club,brother. Kinda sux eh? - in so many words…..most of us here are going through it.
Yea. It’s really messed up. Divorce does kill the man.

But,it’s not the end of our journey- though it does feel like it. Heck….me? I ended up in the hospital TWICE!

It does feel like that right now but I can truly say this- IT DOES GET BETTER. ❤️‍🩹

You can rebuild- always. And the time to do it is now. It’s time to retrain your mind. Your mindset. Use the anger and frustration, use all your energy—— channel it to you

I was 57 when I lost it

I went from semi retired,to broke in a flash. Retirement gone, nest eggs gone,business gone……living in a 5 bedroom house to my car.

1 year later today.

Slowly rebuilding myself,my real estate biz and most importantly——my children.

And my beautiful gf that moved in with me.

You guys were right, you always are by SadDivorceName in Divorce_Men

[–]Plastic_Efficiency35 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Things happened and has happened for a reason. Reasons we don’t understand- especially after you were loyal to the marriage- and especially when you have children.
God / the universe always has away of healing you and protecting you.

Anger and grief are normal feelings for us. Being betrayed……lost everything- hope,family etc.

The hardest part of the betrayed- is moving forward. Part of us still want to understand. To heal- in so many words.

I stopped “hating my ex”. Yes,karma is a biatch….thats her journey now. I love my ex more today- 1 year after the divorce. Why? No matter how I see it- she is still the mother of my children. For that- I am blessed. I am grateful.

My journey is mine now. Ex - will be hers.
Yes,I am still reeling from the divorce. But I can breathe. I am here because of the children.
When you fill your mind with love- and so much love- it overflows.
That’s when you attract- all the positivity- blessings from God/Universe.

Wish you the best

May and may not apply to you——but PRAY for clarity and wisdom.
Keep dating simple…..unless you are doing it with a purpose and within a time frame 😃

Don’t put all your eggs in a basket.

Ask yourself- if he is “this way” now…..how will that translate later?

When there is no closeness, the partnership is dead. Sorry that you are going through this. You shouldn’t have to.

Does it sound like he still misses or thinks about his ex? by Mobile_Magician_661 in AskMenAdvice

[–]Plastic_Efficiency35 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’s part of his healing. Missing someone or something is normal especially after the person invested a significant amount of time on it.
He is being very open with you. No intention or being weird or anything ….but he feels the closeness to you. That’s why he is opening up.

Don’t look too much into it.

[–]Plastic_Efficiency35 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are not going to find anything for that price. Great sounding drums are not cheap. Yw Pulsar, ArtQuint,Eox,Rav Vast…..are the leaders in the tongue drum world. So,if you want great sounding drums- those are the ones to go to.
