KD don't make me get out the sleaze radar! LOL I can totally see why women talked to you. I was the opposite. I had female friends but I also had loads of guy friends who were willing to do anything for me. Yeah, made me into the princess I had to fight against......but also taught me how to "relate" to guys. I work in a very male dominated field and having the skill to talk to anyone is certainly needed.

Zig I am at the picnic! I'm bringing the tea scones and fresh strawberries!

I think Zig that the flirt "technique" had us thinking more towards an outcome. And the reason I love this board is that the majority of people are saying the only outcome you need is to be a happier more stable version of you. Because when we come here we're broken disillusioned desperate and in so much pain. What I've gotten from DB is how to manage those feelings so that you don't destroy whatever bit of communication and friendship that could be there between you and your ex. You'll feel better for that either way especially if you have kids. And maybe they'll take a second look. But whatever happens you would have used this time not crying your eyes out and feeling sorry for yourself but learning and growing and setting yourself up for a great future post divorce.

I read on someone else's sitch that the members "they grew up with".... And I loved that phrase I like that I came here so unhappy and met some other people and little by little we see each other grow stronger, less timid and afraid and more accepting of the unknown future.
