Well, did it ever dawn on you, Lucario, that you have a reverse-bias by thinking that all middle-aged husbands are NOT no-good and needy.
I can't find a post where he said or implied this. I think it's fair to conclude that BOTH genders are guilty of becoming "no-good and needy". For every ex-wife you can find that feels that way, I can find an ex-husband. To imply that there's a significant majority one way or the other is just ignorant.
Single, Divorced, Older Folks - Would you marry again?
I think it depends on your marriage experience. I'm sure those who were divorced because they were cheated on, abused in any way, in short, bad marriage most likely would never marry again.
But those who were widowed and in general had a long happy marriage most likely will have no prob re marrying. Like my father, when my mother passed away it only took him short time and re married.
When I almost divorced, I really thought marriage was a joke. Because I almost divorced my husband of merely 2 months. Now my marriage is OK. We worked on our marriage so we are still together. I of course would like it to be like my parents marriage like LITERALLY til death do us part.
But if for some reason, we broke up, or he dies before me. I have a feeling I won't marry again. I would just be okay with live in arrangements. Or weekend rendezvous relationship.

yes, I am aware that there are bad wives out there too. But it was a female divorcee that started the thread so I ran with that. And Lucaro said as much by saying that my remark was biased and something else, can't remember. It was implied. I always try to make it perfectly clear that I am not painting ALL husbands as bad--just the rotten apples.
Well, the smell part I didn't think about. Fortunately, hers usually smell like lilacs and she has diverticulosis to boot, so I'm lucky that way.
Well, lilacs are a great thing to smell like, if I say so myself, but in terms of gaseous emissions, I have to wonder if perhaps she's just sitting next to a Glade Plug-In when she lets 'em rip?
LOL! I expected that and similar such responses. But if you smelt my farts, you wouldn't be so forgiving. What I meant is if her farts smelt like mine.
Well, did it ever dawn on you, Lucario, that you have a reverse-bias by thinking that all middle-aged husbands are NOT no-good and needy. There are plenty of them out there as many ex-wives on this board will attest. I'm referring to that sub-group, not the entire population. I think made that obvious in the following sentence that you conveniently did not highlight.
No, it never dawned on me, simply because I am not the kind of person who makes generalizations about entire categories of people.
Ive been divorced now for nearly 20 years. I love being single. It took me a while to get to this point. The longer I am single, the pickier I get about the people I let into my life. In my 30's and maybe even 40's, I looked at every new man that I met as a possible, potential, mate. I found myself compromising in order to hopefully be a part of a couple. Now that Ive been single this long, it would take an extraordinarily special man for me to even consider, and I dont think they are out there. Im not sure I would want one to be.
I truly value my space now; no demands, no pressures, no stress, no drama. Im diggin it.
