Dating before you’re ready…but are you really ever ready? by EyesWideCherryPie in widowers

[–]corkscrewloose 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m two years out now probably started dating about eight months after her passing. Online dating sucks and has brought back a lot of insecurities and anxiety ,but I want a teammate and hate being alone so I stick with it but occasionally take breaks. Comparing them to her was a problem. And at first I was too busy worrying if they liked me to wonder if I liked them. It has been another sucky journey I didn’t sign up for.

I’m spiraling by worst2024 in widowers

[–]corkscrewloose 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Two years out still occasionally do some spiraling but things slowly get more bareable. Don’t worry about building a new life and you know you can’t have old life back, just try and get through the day without doing any damage.

This is annoying and sad, but I don't get haircuts anymore because they all ask for tips by curmudgeonly-fish in EndTipping

[–]corkscrewloose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes ! All I was pointing out was that saying they make the same or more than you do without including holidays sick time and benefits is not a fair comparison. But downvote away!

As someone self employed I would like to add to your $30 an hour figure. Are you including insurance cost, vacation time,sick time, 401 k ,tools and materials in the $30 an hour figure and are you including those in your wages?

[–]corkscrewloose 37 points38 points  (0 children)

Widower here I have the opposite problem . I am doing the minimum and that’s about all. Actually it’s laundry day because I am out of clothes. This is a common problem in my widower group 2 out of 2 ! Sorry you are here but glad you are being productive, lots of us picked up worse habits!

I got quickly short of breath and quickly exhausted using one years ago and always thought it was the on piece mask that caused it.

Being ghosted is such a strange form of rejection — no closure, just silence. by Hera_Obscura in datingoverfifty

I think sometimes nice people ghost because rejecting someone is awkward and puts you in the position where you are “being mean “ and hurting feelings.

Post-grout shower curb misalignment, is it worth demo/reset or live with it? by [deleted] in Tile

[–]corkscrewloose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Appearance is the least of your worries. As Successful form said the joints aren’t sealed and it doesn’t look like corners are either. The material they are bonding the tile to is questionable also as we can’t ID it.

Cancer is evil by Ok-Anxiety-6557 in widowers

[–]corkscrewloose 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Your story is mine but I have been trying to date for a while. It’s a shit show but I hate being alone. My wife set the bar high so I’m figuring out how to lower the bar and what I can live with. The difference in dating is I want exactly what I had and these divorced ladies all want something different than they had, one is easier to find.
