MannyB: First, CONGRATS on the future proposal. Hopefully everything works out well for you. Even in my current situation, I am a huge fan of marriage. I wish I did some things differently with my own situation but if you are lucky enough to find the right person, spending your life with that person could be awesome, at least I am guessing as much.
Minnie: Not very often I come across someone from MA on here, its nice to see. I see where you are coming from, but I didn't put in my profile that we still lived together so they wouldn't know that. And, I even contacted a couple people that were, themselves, separated so they shouldn't have been against it either. But, I see what everyone is saying. When I saw someone was separated I questioned it myself.
If I am being completely honest though. I'm not even sure I want to get married again now. I actually do not know anybody that is happily married. My grandparents, parents, aunts and uncles, all weren't. Most of them divorced and the ones that didn't were MISERABLE. None of my friends are happy in their marriages. A mother at my kid's school that I used to be friends with, actually told me when her husband got a scare with cancer that she hoped it was terminal because she didn't believe in divorce and this would be her way out.
Throw all that on top of not having much time, once I get back to work, and taking care of the kids. Money to support them, and then date. Thanks for that reminder Manny.
And, if I can get through all that I need to find someone who thinks I am attractive, and vice versa.
Seems like an uphill battle at this point.
