You have been divorced for a year...your son wants you to move on....get a boyfriend. I know this place is a vehicle to vent and perhaps express yourself in ways you could not elsewhere. however, something tells me that there are similarities with what you write here and your real life thoughts. I am no counselor but it is time you put your XH (who I believe is remarried) behind you Gyps. Get out there and do some stuff...like dancing.....and who cares if a guy hits on you....stay, don't run. Get in shape thsi summer for next year's skiing season. Get out there...it is almost spring. XH and the past takes up waaaay too much space in the Gyps ''testa''. Take a language course, perhaps in Italian to freshen up ... meet some folks.
When you can snatch the pebble form my hand grashopper....it will be time for you to leave..... (your past behind).
