A Call To All Those Divorced and Still Single

RavenQuill · May 23, 2011

This thread is a shout out to all those who have been divorced for several years and who are still single. Would you like to see a group formed where we can chat together about issues that concern us? Would you like to see a forum for sharing stories of children and grandchildren, discussing work or retirement, dating, the fear of dating, the empty nest syndrome?

If you're interested in seeing such a group started, please post your comments here.

Looking forward to hearing from you,
Raven

Jilted John · Jun 6, 2011

Are you trying to tell me out of over 7'000 people,that there are just two? or just two that want to talk about it?

Right on. I don't mean to diminish anyone's loneliness, people are lonely for any number of reasons, regardless of their life situations, but what I wouldn't give to know that at least someone had loved me for a little while.

You know, being married doesn't mean you're loved any more than a blue sky means no rain.

Who ever wrote"Tis better to have loved and lost,than to have never loved at all" was a total pillock!

OK, I'll give you that. I've had one short-lived relationship in my life, I didn't love her, she didn't love me, but it still was the high point in my life. It's difficult to go through life and see the majority of people flit from one relationship to the next like it's nothing, and wonder what could possibly be so undesirable about yourself. Anyway, hijacking thread, sorry...

I will listen to whoever wants to vent................I am newly divorced

RavenQuill · Jul 13, 2011

Thanks PetLuv. Sometimes that's all we need, someone who understands who will listen. So how are you dealing with your own divorce?

a total ... pillock...

What a great word.

I'm not divorced, but I'm here to show my support (and to laugh at John's choice of words).

PS: I do agree with you John

It is hard..............Haven't been on my own for 31 years. The money is tighter too. I just have to hope everything will work out. How about you?

RavenQuill · Jul 14, 2011

Well my dear, I've been divorced for almost 29 years now. In that time I went back to school and got my CYW certificate, got my bus licence, published books, landed a great job with a local school board, and recently took back my maiden name. Money was very tight at first. But you'll see, everything will work out.

NyumNyum · Jul 17, 2011

I'm new here and divorced...I'll join in if you want another voice

Jilted John · Jul 17, 2011

May something slithering in that grass bite them in the ass with its long venom dripping fangs
