[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP you need therapy. And so does the weirdo 43 yr old “rich” chick.

You need to spend time without a man and learn to resolve the emotional issues you are dealing with. No amount of sexing will make that go away.

You need to learn self love. Your children will never learn that if they don’t see you model it. Everything you’ve shared screams of low/no self worth. You do deserve so much better OP.[/quote]

I agree with this.

OP is expressing a strong emotional need for male validation in a relationship, which she isn't getting in her marriage, but her bad marriage has made her so resentful of men that she is simultaneously resisting the idea of a fulfilling emotional relationship with a new partner ever being possible.

The inherent conflict which appears between what she actually seems to want or need, and what she says she intends to seek, will not lead to a satisfactory relationship outcome for OP, regardless if it's just a temporary FWB, or something deeper.[/quote]

OP here: I don't think wanting a man to want to have sex with me is a strong emotional need. I am not asking for a relationship (that would be an emotional need) specifically because I have kids. I don't see the issue. There is no inherent conflict. I don't want an STD. I assume a divorced man with kids is not going to have to screw multiple women nor would he necessarily want an all-out relationship for the exact same reasons I don't. Temporary monogamy is fine...due to the STD thing. Not that complicated. [/quote]
