I’ve been wanting to comment but I feel at this point you don’t want to hear anything I have to say.
Don pretty much covered everything I wanted to say so I thought I would just focus on the dreaded evil here “RULES”.
There is a reason for rules in all aspects of life. Typically we have rules because human beings have a hard time controlling themselves. The only thing worse than rules are “DATING RULES”. People learn things from books all the time in school, college work etc. but for some crazy reason dating rules are icky. Not being too available, not having more than one date a week for the first month. Even though people have been doing research I these things for many years.
It blows it comes to this because you would think that people coming out of marriages would know exactly what to in the midlife dating scene.
Anyho, great news about the gym and the new job! That’s where the focus should be and the rest will work itself out.
