Marriage and the Power of Divorce

At least make them hear about the interesting books you found at the library first.

"Tits or GTFO" is for hos.

You've been around so long you're a bro, so you get a pass

In all sincerity, this is the attitude that is going to get you back on the horse as it were. You are plenty worthy of finding love at your age, but you just need to accept some hard truths about it. First, kids are probably out of the picture at this point and you may end up finding a guy who has one or two of his own. Second, you need to not give a shit and just let things happen, which is to say do not go out in the world with a victim mentality "no one wants me" because predatory guys will smell that shit from miles away and pounce. Third, at that age you are going to have to play the field a bit to sort out the good from the bad, so don't settle (again) for good enough. Finally, focus on one thing at a time in life, which is to say get the divorce done (put that guy fully in the rear view or you will never heal), get the self improvement shit sorted (little excercise is great, but don't get addicted to therapy because they have a vested interest in treating not solving problems), and THEN start paying attention to the dating pool out there.

You are a sub 40s woman with solid looks who has a job and her shit together. You also like nerd shit and hand out BJs after being married. Get that self esteem issue under control and you are practically a fucking unicorn. I get that depression is a mother fucker, but you actually hold all the cards here. You just have to keep your sense of humor about the whole thing and make sure you don't fall in with someone who is going to take advantage of you again. Your looks are fine, remember you are not competing with the 20 something sperm receptacles for chad dick. You are looking for a nerd who has their shit together and has probably had their heart stomped on by one of those woman who you can relate to and take you to pound town often enough that you feel desirable. I think this is easily achievable by you and there are some dudes in this thread who started over in their mid 30s who can give you some solid advice if you feel you need it. You just can't give in to negativity and be your own worst enemy. If my fat ugly ass can find my one true love at 37, you can do it too.

Good luck.

Izo, you are as constant as the northern star.

This could be read a couple ways but in any case there's enough gas and matches for you both.

For a second I thought we were getting a bit soft in our old age and not just because it was the grown up section. Glad to see some things haven't changed.

I dunno why, but that stupid gif cracks me up every time, too.
