A new beginning to an end

[soleil]

I once read a book called "F@ck, Yes!: A Guide to the Happy Acceptance of Everything" (1988)

This title is hilarious! I actually googled it yesterday and couldn't find any at my library's catalog but it was available on Amazon. I want to read it. It got some pretty good/funny reviews.

Romeo, the friend is a guy. As for the lab partner, well I took your advice and told him to meet me halfway for studying and he never responded. Saw him at class for the exam and a few hours later he texted me apologizing, saying his friend OD'ed, etc. In a way, I'm kinda glad nothing came of it.

I think Jimmy Swaggart wrote it! I believe he said "f@ck yes" to everthing, as long as it was with a hooker.

Haha. Good one, Whatis. I have such a fun idea of what you are like in my head... first with the scripture and the Lord cursing (by the way, I copy/pasted it to my sis for a laugh) and now this book recommendation. I imagine you as the person at church who randomly curses and the the congregation stops and looks at you, gasping wide-eyed. Good times

You had asked on Romeo's thread when this got better. For me it was after the divorce. I fought for my marriage all the way up until the end so after I began to see my life without him. I also know that I gave it everything I had so nothing to be ashamed of.

I was in the mess for a bit over two years and have been divorced a bit over two years. There is so much stress of the unknown. Who knows what a divorce is like if you haven't gone through it. The limbo and then constant dread took a real toll. So much better now.

Look at you Sol! the lab partner, the friend etc- you're swimming in the sea of available men. So when's the dinner? Are you looking forward to it? feeling butterflys?

What's the scoop on your D? I forget if you ever got a date nailed down?

Well, f@ck yes, I still share my humour at church, I just tone it down a bit!

Sincerely,
Mrs. A

Mrs. A--thanks for stopping in. And that's a lot of pages!

ITA. People who haven't been through this have NO idea what it's like.

Whatis... I really really want to buy this F!ck Yes! book. It's on the top of my Amazon wish list.

Romeo, dinner was nice. It also felt weird in a way. He was acting into me and I told him I am not looking for anything serious at all and I am going through a D. I have known him for about 6-7 yrs/same group of friends.

I don't think I will do dinner again w/ anyone until my D is final. I know life doesn't stop after D and my stbx is the one who filed the D but leaving dinner I went home and crawled into bed and thought about what I used to have and what I don't now and it made me sad.

It's all mentally exhausting.

No class or lab for me today which makes me very happy Anyone watch the show Dexter on Showtime? I got caught up w/ it last night and it's getting really good!

Hey sol sister, ain't that Mr. Mister on the radio, stereo, the way you move ain't fair, you know!
Hey sol sister, I don't want to miss a single thing you do...tonight



Hey I'm glad your dinner went well. I know what you mean by it feeling weird- been there done that. I haven't gone on any dates/dinners etc since then either. However, I don't think there's anything wrong with going out for a bite to eat as friends. Just casual stuff you know where you don't have to dress up to the 10s etc. That should have nothing to do with the D. Just enjoying the simple things in life.

If you like any of these guys and want to hang out again just tell them that you only want to be friends for now. If they like you they'll be patient.

Have fun today! (I don't watch TV- and newmamma it's not because I'm cheap lol)
