[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't understand the hate.

I divorced at 42 after ex blew up the entire family. My 3 teenage kids and I were completely blindsided. I had always been faithful and had always pictured myself being with my ex till the day I die.

I really thought my life was over and had a mental picture of myself alone sitting in a rocking chair with cats around me, because it was what it seemed like what happened with divorced women in the 40s and 50s. I felt like a used dirty kitchen rag. After years of mental abuse and lack of intimacy, I didn't even see myself slightly attractive, forget about feeling sexy at all. I was useless and pointless after breeding 3 awesome children, or that was what the society made me feel.

When I finally started healing and forcing myself to get out there, I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of men I went on dates with. My priority, for now, is my 3 children, as they are the biggest victims in this traumatic divorce, and the man I've been dating for the last 1.5 years understands and respects me for that. I have no desire to blend family and make my life any more complicated.

I don't understand the hate for women in our situation, mocking us like we're just old women with baggage.

I mean, there are "loser" men at any age, right? Or men who just want to have sex?

You sound normal. This woman posting isn't you. [b]She's just going around like the men getting laid[/b] and then boasting about it as if it's a plus to her and her men and we should all respect them for their ability to find an F buddy.[/quote]

You say that like it's a bad thing. [/quote]

What's good about it for society and for themselves and their partners? Especially when they are seeing married people and lying about their wishes? To me it's a bad thing. For both women and men. It's called slutty behavior.[/quote]

That might work on a 15 year old insecure school girl, but I quite enjoy being slutty.  You should try it sometime. It's very freeing. [/quote]
