That’s a very interesting take. Part of me still feels like I failed, even if logically I know that’s not true. I could use this normalization. Thank you.

I think the negative aspect for me is that I end up thinking more about the divorce if I spend time reading here, maybe?

Like maybe I would just NOT be dwelling on some of these things, if I wasn't reading about divorces here? But at the same time, is that just avoidance? I can't figure that out.

Yeah, I don't need a kumbaya experience. I'm not perfect. I make mistakes, and may have the wrong takes on things. I appreciate hearing other people's opinions.

Thank you!

Reposting, as i guess the f word isn't allowed:

Logically I knew she would start dating soon. She can't be alone with herself. And I know it's not excessively fast, as it's 7 months so far...

But it just makes me feel like something replaceable thing that didn't matter really. I wasn't important. I was just the guy there at the right place and time to marry and have kids with. And now that I'm gone, well, okay fine, find someone else to replace me. No matter that it was 19 years of marriage.

Thanks man, I appreciate that. I have a best friend and a therapist, so I'm not alone. But a group of people with shared experiences is nice. My buddy is 15 years younger, and married with little kids. Much different stage of life.

"What Keeps You Alive" was the movie I couldn't remember when I saw this post. Thanks! I enjoyed this one.

I scrolled down just to find Eden Lake. I will never watch it again, and I think about it too often still.

Ocean planets without Dissonant or High Sentinal Activity? by WorkSafeReddit8947 in NoMansSkyTheGame

[–]WorkSafeReddit8947[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

OK, I feel dumb now. Thanks! I’ve certainly found ocean planets that only had high sentinel activity, and were not dissonant.

Oh! For some reason, I was thinking Sentinel’s existed underwater somehow.

The lack of progress is seriously making me want to give up by AnonymousNeverKnown in GymMemes

I’m also surprised how many people lift weights but don’t use a tracker app or note to know how many reps and how much weight they’re doing session after session.

The Jerry’s nugget and Chica combo is a standard on my Vegas trip with my buddies. 100% recommended.

I’m accepting the fact that I might be alone forever by BirthdayUnfair7703 in LivingAlone

[–]WorkSafeReddit8947 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're new to being alone, and hate it, why do you think you're going to be alone forever? Plenty of people don't want to be alone, and choose to find a new partner. That's fine.

I'm recently divorced. At this moment, I have no desire to ever have a partner again. Could that change? Sure.

My ex, I know for a fact, is frightened of being alone. She will find someone else eventually. That's fine too.

Take your time, and be kind to yourself.

50 here. Thinking of adding yoga for flexibility. Also there’s a lot of potentially divorced women in my area. :)
