no--just hoping to generate a bit of discussion on that topic (something I'm notoriously ineffective at here). The other old chestnut is that the first relationship after divorce is inevitably a rebound affair which is doomed to end painfully.
my opinion is that at this point in my life (and Andy Rooney would seem to agree) I know myself fairly well. I've done considerable work, I've learned from my mistakes, I've known enough "bad" to appreciate the good--and I won't accept anything but love, kindness, and being cherished.
perhaps just a bit more time in this desert (a wise friend described this time as a "desert experience" spiritually) and real love will find me again for the first time.
