Thanks HP, JL and the other folks who have posted here. I appresciate you taking the time to stop by and add something.
Last month was tight, financially, less work over the holidays and more expenses due to it being Christmas...
I cetainly hope things pick up. I pampered myself with some flowers, also in case H had come over today...
I have a friend/acquaintance coming to stay on Sunday, for a few days. She has no place to stay, no work, no money and visa problems too, so let's see if I can't help someone out for a change and stop thinking about my own situation.
As for H demanding D for two weekends, I will look on the bright side and get busy with stuff I have to do when she is not here.
Maybe I should get some vouchers to a finishing school or deportment classes for H's birthday, so he can learn some manners? - "How to ask nicely and not come across as a bully/pompous ass etc"
Dating? I have never dated. All the men I have been involved with I have met through activities, work, college etc. I have never been on a 'date'.
My good friend here, who is separated and went through her own MLC, joined an internet dating site and has been out on many dates. From her stories, it is NOT the kind of thing I am looking for. After the first or second outing, there is pressure and the asumption that you now have to PAY for those meals out, and I am NOT into that. She herself has pulled back, realising that it doesn't offer what she wants.
But as for getting out and about more, then I am all for that.
And creating some mystery. I will have to cultivate a 'dear' friend!
