Seriously, though, I agree with you. I do talk to men; I'm outgoing and don't have trouble meeting people. Only frogs so far, though. But that's okay b/c I'm not in any kind of shape to start a R.
My time is limited and precious, so I don't see the point of dating for its own sake. I get out usually once a week (Sat) with friends or stay home if I want to. Now H is back to having the kids Sat and Sun eves b/c I thought I'd be dating, lol! But that's okay, I'm still busy enough to not be too sad.
OK, I'll tell you something funny - darkly funny, that is - about SuperDad (SD) aka my H, who pretty much igored the kids for 8.5 yrs, till he moved out.
My D10 has had stomach problems since Wed. I think it's an intestinal blockage, probably stress related, since she eats tons of fruit and veg. Anyway, I wasn't sure till yesterday. On Thurs, I usually have choir, but I didn't so I told H I'd be home, so he could take the kids to his place for a couple of hours, but D wouldn't be able to go out anywhere (i.e. ow's place). Well, H decided that it would be better for D10 if she just stayed home w/ me. Of course, he thought S5 should just stay here too. Heck, why spend time w/ him alone? And why spend time w/ D when she's sick and might throw up?
SD said he'd pick them up today at 4 instead of 6 to "make up the time." Of course, D's doing a lot better, or he'd probably cancel again. Once again, he comes in ow's car. This is the third time he's picked up the kids in her car! So I'm thinking, what is with this guy? DID he actually buy the car? Then I realize what's going on: SuperDad still hasn't bought a car seat! He's had the car for a month. D got out of hers around age 7, so it's not like S will be out of his soon (he's not big).
What a guy! He's using his gf's car b/c he can't be bothered to buy a car seat. Oh no, he's probably "too busy." Unlike FIB, the surgeon, who manages to come home with car seats in the new car on the first day.
This morning when I called at 11 to confirm the time for today, I woke him up. He's clearly back to his old habit of drinking heavily Fri night.
So he uses his gf's car. She cooks dinner for him and kids, or sometimes he takes them all out. She has her place all ready for him and the kids on Sunday and gets them lunch. I've noticed that since they've been "official," there's no more doing fun stuff with the kids. They just sit around at her place. What fun for D10! And they are always at her place; I'm guessing it's so she can clean up the mess.
Anyway, it's not my problem.
I just saw "Meet the Robinsons." Fun, but made me cry. Motto of the movie: Let go of the past. Keep moving forward.
