Hi Truelove, funny to read about the neighbour I had a similar thing shortly after I moved here, my neighbour who obviously knew I lived alone tried to claim I was responsible for a boundary fence(which was in a poor state of repair). I had already been told which were mine and it stated so on the deeds,so I told him I thought he was mistaken but I would check with my solicitor which I did and he told me neighbour was pulling a fast one!(not sure if you are familair with that expression) Anyway I told neighbour I had checked and it was indeed his responsibilty. I never heard another word about it, so I guess we just need to sort these things as they crop up and stand firm.
I agree it is times like this when you miss a male,but we manage and it gets easier. Take care.
Thank you for your post. I have not sorted out the problem with my neighbour yet, but I also consulted a laywer and he told me what to say to the neighbour and what to do.
I had a nice time and enjoyed the play last week-end. Unfortunately, there were no single men to sit next to but I sat opposite a nice lady and you would not believe it, she also lives on the other side of the town I live in!
I answered yet another single's ad on the internet and received a nice e-mail from a guy who sent me his photograph. He is about my age and is really good looking and tall, but he must be more of a biker which is not my type of person at all. But when I saw his picture I had to laugh out loud – he even has a tattoo! – I am more the conservative type and just couldn't imagine going out with somebody like him.
Last night I went to a modern ballet with my sister which was absolutely trash. Afterwards we went for a drink and she asked me if I had heard from XH. I said no, and went I got home I received a businesslike e-mail from him. He was asking about the sale of the property since nothing has happened anymore and asked me to find out about it.
Today I went hiking with my GF and am absolutely tired.
The other day it was raining for the first time in weeks and I was so depressed. I sometimes get these days when I just cannot understand that XH threw everything we had away for his life he has now. What I also cannot understand is that about 10 years ago he drove to a friend to talk sense into him because he wanted to divorce his wife. And then he goes and does exactly the same thing! It is just beyond me how one person can change so much in such a short time.
I hear you TL, makes no sense. I said to my h about 3 years ago that he had a screw loose in his brain. Oh he was offended and has used it against me every opportunity he gets, but that is how I feel I think these mlcer's have a loose screw and can't seem to see the bigger picture.
My h would say, do I look happy, I am not happy being away from my family, but then does nothing to close that gap. Makes no sense what so ever.

Thanks for your post. Sometimes it makes it a bit easier to see that other LBS experience the same things.
Hi BND,
I am glad you like to read about my "adventures" as well. In that case I need to continue so that I can tell you more stories - LOL! I thought of quitting for a while since I don't get to know the right people from the website I am using. However, I registered with a proper dating site this time and wonder if I will get better results.
True, I'm always anxious to come here to read about your day and your activities. It sounds like you are staying busy and are enjoying the activities that you are involved in. I still think you need to write up a journal of your adventures and when you are ready...tackle a book.
Enjoy your weekend!
Sit quietly, the answers will reveal themselves when you least expect them to. The past is gone, the present is a gift and you need to focus on today, allow the future to reveal itself when it is ready.
Thanks for your nice post. Yes, I quite enjoy my days these days. However, I am still surprised that my XH is so often on my mind!
I took notice of your suggestion and have actually started to write a few notes each time I meet somebody - LOL! I also keep all the e-mail correspondence and so I might one day do what you are suggesting. However, just recently there was a book like it published but the lady saw 100 guys and not one of them was her dream man. So I still have ways to go - LOL!
As I mentioned before, I was a bit disappointed in not getting to know some people of my level, but I heard from other friends that some of the women were looking for 2-4 years. But in the end they did meet somebody really nice.
I just received another guy's reply to my e-mail who is my age. So next week I will hopefully be able to write something about him.
I don't come around much anymore .... sorry !!! Life seems to have become so exciting and full that I have felt little need to come here. I do however apologize for staying away, as sometimes I think it would be nice to come and help others when they have a difficult time...
Anyway, I love reading your stories too, and hope you're well !!
I'm enjoying my life to the fullest ! It's been a blast the past few weeks !
Take care and have a wonderful week ! xxx

Thanks for coming by and your wishes. No need to be sorry that you are not around much. I am so happy for you that you are enjoying your life to the fullest - good for you, you deserve it.
Hi BND,
Thanks for thinking of me.

How was your weekend? Any wonderful adventures to share?
LOL - one of GFs asked the same question! Unfortunately, I have nothing exciting to "report". However, I answered two more ads. Let's see what happens. - And next time you'd better buy my book to find out what happened - LOL!
I had quite a nice week-end. The vernissage I went to with two GFs on Saturday was nice but unfortunately, the weather changed and it got so cold and wet that we couldn't go to the jazz event afterwards. So my GFs wanted to go to a dancing (again!)instead and I couldn't say I didn't want to go. It wasn't good but, as one of them said later on, it was better than sitting home alone.
Yesterday afternoon I met my GF in my favourite restaurant by the water front for an ice cream. In the evening I was quite down. I watched a film about a couple who was about to divorce and they found their way back to each other again. I really should not have watched it since it made me so sad. I am still not over XH and not detached enough. From time to time I get these days when I am so angry at him and very sad.
