Default RE: frustration ride

44 years old. Never married. Longest steady girlfriend was about 3 months. No regrets. As you get older, you find you don't miss them as much. But then again, most of the wmen I have ever had were totally worthless anyway. Might be my taste in women that has kept me from ever getting married, but even the ones I lived with I wouldn't have ever considered.

Kids? I don't know. Spent a while overseas. There may be one or two in the woodpile. They would probably hate daddy anyway. I had a nice dog once. She was shepard mix, and lived about 10 years. Raised her from a pup. But I have a cat or 2 now. One is a stray, drifts in and out, shows up to eat. Other I have had for 12 years. They both live outside.

Now, if I could find a woman like that.....

All due respect to stretch....hopefully some other fellas may jump in here.....it's natural to want to spend your life with someone. Unless you have taken a vow of celebacy and can't think about being with another person, it's pretty unrealistic to think that there is no one else out there "worthy" of being with you. I am sure some of Stretch's comments were out of humor, like I said, all due respect. It's important right now to just get through this divorce (if it happens) and then decide if eventually getting into another relationship is something you want or not. Go on a short trip to the beach and hang out with all that s*** in your head and sort it out over a couple bottles of suds listening to some music watching all those beautiful honeys strut by......

When I was going through mine, a buddy gave me some advice that at the time I thought was funny, but ended up being real true. He said " the worst part of divorce is when everyday you wake up their takin away more of your stuff. One morning you wake up and realize you have absolutely nothing left...and it's not so bad". Man if that wasn't the truth with me. But I am back now better than ever and you will come through this fine, and remember this. The reason divorce is so expensive is because it's worth it.

ps If you got a bitter streak, now is the perfect time to do her sister or best friend....lol

Sorry to hear about this, Im lucky everything is working out fine in my marriage, however I have 4 (yes 4) very close buddies going through divorces rite now, I see what it has done to them, but it seems to get easier for them, and the ones that are almost done are starting to realize that life goes on and everything will be fine, and in the end you will be stronger and life probably better. My one buddy told me something on one of our last rides and it stuck with me, kinda funny, "woman may come and go but harleys are forever". It is funny how a simple ride on the harley just simply melts away a guys troubles. Keep your chin up and keep rolin, better days may be around the next cuve!!!
