Barb, I think for some people they want to be ready, they are lonely but when the reality of meeting someone hits, stuff gets stirred up and they want to retreat back to where it's comfy, familiar and safe. Let's face it, the idea of making yourself vulnerable is a frightening thought especially when you've had your ass handed to you before. I'd rather think that people are genuine but find the reality a little harder than they thought. I'm sure there are those who are out there playing games but I guess there are worse things in this world that can be done to you other than trading a few inconsequential emails with someone! Today, I am watching football. D14 and 17 are going to a get together with a group of friends with whom STBX and I raised our children with. I've declined to attend...I've had enough "family" togetherness for this season! My divorce papers were to be submitted to the court last week but my lawyer hasn't informed me yet so, maybe it was to be next week. I might go visit my Mom tonight, we'll see...the day is young! Maybe I'll hit on the bra-model later or HorneyDevil, who visited my profile yesterday...ooh, I feel so dirty even thinking about it lol.
