Just wondering if anyone wants to chat about post divorce from the man's perspective. The breakup of my marriage and divorce like most here was initiated by my wife. Naturally she got the lion's share of the assets and custody of our son but who's counting.
I am fascinated by my experiences in the last six years. Not sure how unique my story is but I did battle cancer, divorce and a career change at the same moment. At this point my survival is very likely and I am very focused on my health and my body. I work out as many as five days a week and at fifty-four years old I am as strong as I have ever been.
Dating: What a crazy world we live in. It has never been easier to find potential dates but I am not sure of many of our options. Dating sites are pretty much a cesspool of unhealthy and broken people. Few ever look like their profile pictures. The self evaluations and descriptions are often delusional. There are a limited number of jewels in that realm however. I find dating in the real world to be a little different. Probably much more honest. As I stated I have taken great care of myself and made solid financial choices. Women of all ages show interest. I have decided that raising another two year old is not a good fit for me. Yes a hot young lady is fun but I only get the part left over after she takes care of her kids, job, chores etc......Frankly few women post forties have taken care of themselves. We are all aging but obesity/sloth and bad hair are choices.
Anyway, what do you think? Want to compare notes?
