Desperate Divorcees.

Why do so many of them think that the guy's wife they're flirting with won't punch them in the face?

And, when you get to the age of 50, shouldn't you be independent enough not to need to chase after men?

/sigh On a different note, I'm making a vegetarian dinner tonite. The husband will either starve to death or leave me. The recipe looked too friggin' good and easy enough to make after work. I'm sorta excited. It has nothing to do with the fact that I had to eat fast food for lunch and it made me wanna puke.

Women who think other women are after their men, when the men are usually in the not if he were the last person on earth category. Just saying...

I'm sure that happens. But, when it's been confirmed by unbiased sources on 'his' side, I'd say I have a good reason to want to punch her in the face.

He's a musician. I'm used to the casual flirtations and the overzealous fans. I know the difference.

The fact that she's a RW CT nut makes it almost fun.

I wouldn't be too quick to try to get back into another relationship or even just have sex with someone else. I'd just want to be alone probably.

right up until you said "or even just have sex with someone else"

To me, that seems like the best (and possibly only good) part of getting divorced.

I'm also one of those people who doesn't do meaningless sex well. I was celibate for a long time before I met my wife.
