It takes time, but truth always prevails.


I know but this is starting to affect whether I can remain solvent. I've lived in my home for 22 years. Someday I might choose to move but I want it at a time that is of my choosing and not because XH is squeezing me financially via the kids.

Interesting observation:

For the last, at least, 2yrs every time XH has arrived to pick up the kids he has sat outside in his car and either sent a text or rang them to say he has arrived. He's been to collect D14 twice this week. Both times he came to the door, rang the doorbell and then scurried back to his car. It's almost like he is starting to feel a little braver about speaking to/seeing me. Must be his recent nuptials making him have a better self esteem grin

As of today I own 100% of my house. Feels good but also very frightening.

I'm fine really. Had a bit of a shock earlier on in the week though which has left me feeling down again.

I finally posted the photos I had done at the makeover on FB. I'm really pleased with them and have had lots of nice compliments from people who can see my profile. Out of the blue the guy I had a fling with sent me an email on FB. He had seen my pictures on the wall of our mutual friend. He told me how stunning I looked etc. We exchanged a couple of emails and now the communication has stopped again. I know he is 'loved up' at the moment, I know he doesn't want me and I know he isn't right for me BUT just having that interaction after thinking I had deleted all contact details for him has left me feeling very sad again.

Well really got an ego boost last night.

I'd gone out to say bon voyage to a friend who is going travelling for 6 months. At the end of the night a couple of us went for a quick dance in a nightclub. Whilst I was dancing away a VERY young man came and started dancing with me. He then led me off the dance floor. I thought it was b/c he wanted to talk to me and wanted to go somewhere a little quieter. In fact he wanted me to get directly into a taxi with him....................... Of course I didn't and just politely told him I was probably old enough to be his mother. Interestingly this was in the same nightclub that I met the guy I had a fling with a couple of months back. It's the first time I've been in there since. Maybe it's my 'lucky pulling ground' LOL

Hi Alison, just catching up. Off topic really but as far as age goes with regard to dating, have you a bottom level for the youngest man you would date?
or do you just go with how you feel about them as a person and age isn't really relevant. It seems it's ok for men to date much younger women but not the other way round, any thoughts on this.
I understand the "taxi" guy was a non started.
