Where have you been and why did you leave? We love you and missed you. Please stay!
Heya, Happy Dad! That's so sweet of you! I've been taking care of some medical probs and have things pretty much in hand now. Fixin' to move back to Beaumont next weekend.
I'll be here. Don't know another place where I can come in contact with peeps I can relate to, yanno. This place is the greatest!
Hugs,
Frannie
P.S. Welcome Back Frannie! Good to hear from you again!
Thanks, Cyrus! Glad I'm back, too!

it would have a to a spectacular relationship where emotions and love i've never had evoked before were present.
hmmmm.
so, i guess the answer is no.

My answer is yes!
I had a pioneer mariage, my ex didn't want to have kids, etc. We had a great life together, until I left the org in disgust, and our marriage crashed down.
I had just one idea in mind: flee from that insane org, and have a real family at last. I'm craving for exchanging unconditional love, and become a dad.
But I also need open-mindedness and tolerance. I'm wondering if I could find such a rare pearl.
It's extremely unlikely that I would remarry.
But one practical thought that might peruade me to: because I am divorced and my children are adults, my pension dies with me. I am tempted to marry an 18 year old just for the pleasure of thinking of the organisation I worked for having to pay out the pension for the next 60 or so years.
(Well, yeah, OK, not JUST for that particular pleasure, but you get my meaning.)
It appears that the signature on the marriage certificate didn't mean too much to my husband.

On a more realistic and serious note than my last post - I was married for 23 years and have been divorced for 4 (how time fly!!). Still very good friends with the ex.
Whilst married there was never any playing around. Since divorce I've had a number of casual flings and a couple of short-term relationships. - probably the 'kid in a sweetshop' syndrome.
One thing I have learned about me is that casual sex is a pretty empty thing. I, for one, would rather have an evening of holding hands, cuddling and smooching with someone I really cared for (and who reciprocated the feeling) than a night of unrestrained 'beast with two backs' with someone for whom I felt little other than the attraction of lust.
Am I just getting old?

I agree with you completely. Maybe we're both getting old LOL
