divorce, stress and the unknowns?...
by Axelspeed in

for those who have been thru it (i hate the sound of the word), what is the most stressful aspect and what would you do differently?

and what did you not expect?

i would like to know as right now it has become a real possibility for me.

I think the msot stressful thing to me about my divorce was we were together for 11 years and it was hard not knowing what to expect. Also, he would not let me get "good" jobs. I only had little piddle jobs that had NO benefits and little pay so I was worried about how I was gonna take care of myself. With the help of one friend who let me move in and share rent, the help of another who gave me some furniture and the help of another who got me a new job, I was able to make it! But it was very stressful and it was then I learned to drink ALOT! I don't do it as often know but the divorce sure started me on the way. Good Luck! And believe, me everyone who ahs said don't stay if you are miserable is RIGHT! You have to make YOU happy!

i "came out" a few years ago, after living straight for 30 years.

tried to deny all those years that i was a lesbian.

but even if i didnt act on it...i still was.

Gretchen,
Wow, I had never heard Rita Mae Brown make that statement! I truly enjoy her Mrs. Murphy cat books and the others that are not in that line! And yes, I think she has a point there. I think alot more people think about it than admit it.

ugh, i need to work out and have no motivation.

the last several weeks, i have been doing 1 1/2 - 2 miles a night on the treadmill, lifting weights and doing 50 sit-ups a night.

not much i know but it's a start.

Double Edge,
Thanks for the encouragement, I appreciate it. I logged off after posting this and MADE myself to the workout. I guess what I am wondering is, what kind of exercises does everyone else here enjoy? Has anyone found a great exercise they would like to share and so on. I just want a little something different so I don't get bored of the same routine.

I like men and women although I don't really consider myself bi-sexual because I have only had two experience with women. Hmm, how many eperiences do you have to have to be BI???? Anyways, although I enjoyed it immensely and won't rule out it ever happening again, I do prefer men. I do have several gay and lesbian friends.

Confrontation has its place

i know most of you wouldn't read this, after-all it might improve your life and you don't want that do you?.

no sane person enjoys confrontation.

we like to be liked and thought well of.

I used to let people walk all over me. In the last few years I have heard people make comments about me such as that they don't like me because I say what I think and to anyone who wants to hear it or is within earshot. Instead of being offended when I hear comments like that, i am PROUD! NO ONE is going to tell me what to do ever again if I don't want to do it!

Insomniac,
Yeah, I can't wait for the boxed set either. Oh and did you hear he is planning on making a movie called "The Vega Brothers" based on Michael Masdens role in Resevoir Dogs and John Travolta's role in Pulp Fiction? That should be really good also.
