Thanks LH. That’s a lot of dates. Yikes. My 54th birthday is looming and I guess I’m just trying to find my enthusiasm for the process again. I was reflecting last night on all of the men I have met in the past two years and can’t help but wonder if I’m being too picky. I look around at all of the happy couples I know and I probably would have swiped left on most of the guys…lol. I guess that’s a good thing. Don’t want to have a crush on any friends…lol.
Speaking of guys that I’ve met, had an out of the blue missed call from Jack on Christmas Day. He has butt dialed me numerous times but not for over a year now and not on Messenger. Anyway, he and I parted amicably and I have missed his friendship so I thought I would just send him a Merry Christmas message. He returned it and we had a nice chat. He’s back working and living in my area…about a six minute drive from me. He sounds like he is approaching a crossroads in his life. Really wanting a change in professions but not knowing exactly what he wants to do. Playing his guitar and writing music. Talked to him again on New Years Day and he was alone on NYE so I don’t think he is dating anyone. I’m not surprised. He really is an introvert by nature so I don’t see him going out of his way to meet anyone. Add Covid to that and he probably spends most of his off time alone. Anyway…it was nice to connect with him again.
Also been talking a lot with my XH (first one). He’s such a good guy and he seems to appreciate me more now than he did when we were together. He has finally found a job he loves that pays him decently. Also a guy who won’t go out of his way to meet anyone new. When we were younger, women would approach him all of the time (it was beyond annoying) but I’m assuming that doesn’t happen so much anymore. He works from home and doesn’t gig as much as he used to so I’m guessing there aren’t as many opportunities for him as there used to be.
Anyway…I’m sure I will get more motivated in the spring. Just needing to focus on other things these days.
