Pilot,

My sitch took a weird twist as well recently.

And at 5 ' 7" and just under a "buck-twenty", I guess I qualify as "willowy" now. Blonde... but not dumb!
(Anyway, I'm too old for you.)
Rayzzz probably looks super hot in a wig and a Batman costume, playing a Ukulele.
Those plastic abs are really eye-catching! I want some! smile
----------------------------------------

But yes, it IS really hard to keep the faith when the people we love are throwing us under the bus, and there are all these really nice people out there who *seem* really interested...

Who knows what they're really like, but I think we can all agree, they are a balm for the old ego!!!!
-------------------------------------

I had an interesting, ego-stroking exchange with the young guy behind the meat counter at the grocery store today.
He is working his way through graduate school (full boat).
He was bright and funny, easy on the eyes--and clearly liked his meat... "aged and well seasoned"!
He was the most compelling person I've spoken to in weeks; cracking jokes about the price of the "meat" among other things.
He really made me laugh and was obviously smart and confident.
His "interest" was such a contrast to GUBU, who I usually feel would be happier if I had just died.

He started to up the flirting ante--but I beat it out of there.
No dating yet. Nope! Too scaarrrrrryyyy......

Too much temptation and I am pretty lonely for male companionship at the moment.
(But you can bet I'll be buying more Kebabs and Pub Burgers on Wednesdays in the near future! I need to gain some weight anyway.)

I'm sure a lot of women would write him off because he's packing up their chicken breast, but I know not to judge a person by the job they're doing.
---------------------------------

I heard today on Dr. Oz that "Testosterone takes a dip in Spring, rebounds in Summer."

Don't know how that's relevant, except that the "testosterone" seems to be flowing lately.
For us female DBers, it might mean our Hs are going wacko, into "RUT". Yuck!
They appear to be focused on what *might* be available in the gene pool.

Meanwhile, our wonderful male DBers are feeling the pinch of their wives being MIA while their levels are surging. That can't feel good.

Just food for thought.

Anyhow.
There are great people everywhere.
If our S's don't come around, I think the people here will do just fine in the end.

There are a LOT of people out there who are looking for QUALITY.

That is the elusive "IT" factor that is in short supply.

And if nothing else, this he!! we are going through is refining us, whether we like it or not.
We will either be better for it, or worse for it.

That's up to us.

For myself, I want to be better for this experience.

If the messed-up losers on Jerry Springer can have a passel of suitors fighting over them on national TV, we sure can!

"Who's your Baby Daddy?" "Bachelor Number One?" "NOPE."
"Bachelor Number Two?" "Nope."
"Bachelors 5-9-20????" "Nope."

GIRL-FIGHT!!!! Pull off that wig!!!
------------------------------------

At least this board proves we can string a sentence together.
That's a real plus in my book.
I love a quick wit, a good sentence, a thoughtful reply.

If nothing else, we are LEARNING.
And we are GROWING.

We WILL be better for this experience, either for our spouses, or a new partner.

Or maybe--just for ourselves.

"So Sayeth the Triple GGG..."

Hijack?

Absolutely.

Sorry?

Only a little.
