[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It was eye-opening for me because it gave pretty solid, immediate feedback w/r/t how the market valued and perceived me. Divorced after a ~30-year relationship wherein DW valued me so little at the end that I don't think she imagined anyone else could.

As soon as I started reaching out for connection, I found that an ok-looking, financially comfortable divorced dad who says please and thank you, listens to women when they talk, and is not trying to trick or hurt anyone can do incredibly well in this town. [/quote]

See the above I still can’t date.

The ultimate test of a mate is what they do during tough times. Tough times like raising, parenting, coaching, emotionally supporting kids 18+ years, health scares, running a household together with another person, managing extended families and traditions, and so on.

I just don’t care to talk with someone who tried that, likely failed at it and got divorced.

Then they show up after Hitting the Reset button like they are so great.

Great at what? Living a simple life without dependents or things to problem solve. 
Well that part of life ebbs and flows. Adult children need you, life beyond yourself needs you. [/quote]
