I only read a little of your posts, but I see that you just had bad luck with your XH (by that I mean he is the one with the issues). I was cheated on too, and I was devastated when I discovered the betrayal. I know what you and many others here went through - and for THAT reason I cannot go back to my WAS. It's a tough journey to find happiness in yourself again - but it's the SANE thing to do, it's right, we deserve to lead a happy life and to find that someone special that won't cheat. I was seeing a woman that's been divorced 3 times, and I got attached to her, but my head was telling me "don't do it...don't fall for someone like that again".....I guess it's a warning sign that I should really wait and not rush into another R again only to be disappointed later, especially with her past of failed R's. It's funny how our radars go up after we have gone through such a hard ordeal with our past marriages.
That high school guy does sound like a teenager in high school! LOL! but we know what you mean. If you think he only hangs out with you because he doesn't have a life - that's a big sign for you to not get involved. 2 people should have a lot in common, and still be there own unique individual. I for one, am an artist, and it's hard for me to find a nice, cute, decent woman that can really appreciate that in me, but I have other interests too like travel, soaking up world history, and just having fun in general and being my silly self. I try to remember to not fall for just anyone and "settle". We should never "settle".
It's a nice feeling to know that you have extra money now.
