Quoting: JC 177506How long has it been since the divorce? If within 2 years don't give up it gets better by the year. You have been trained by society that you need to have a mate but now you are learning you really don't. You start finding a new life and realize hey I can do this and don't NEED a man. I am not against marriage myself if a person wants to be married. I am just happy single myself. |

Did you miss the part about these women are NOT looking to get another husband and ARE happy? They don't want a husband, it isn't the men didn't want them. They don't care if a man wants them or not as they don't want a man ;) |

Problem is don't live with him as then it is much more difficult to get away if you find he is abusive. Boyfriends can be hard to be rid of if they are abusive but it is harder if living with them as an abusive person get very possessive while living with them. |

I love to nurture. I love my career too. I support myself but I am very pleased to have my mate with me on weekends. I also love nurturing my children. It seems that people could restructure relationships to suit them and make them work. It's working for me like this, think about it folks. |
