One Night Stranded Should Tell Woman Something

Divorce Interactive ^ | THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 9, 2006 | Susan Deitz

[Rebelbase]

"Attend a church. Lots of good strong men there that would love to treat you like a lady."

And lots who will take you to dinner before hitting on you.

[Chanticleer]

Yeah, well in case she doesn't take me up on my offer, I'd better get back to it. FReeping is more fun that laundry, but I hate it when my kids show up at church wearing old halloween costumes and footie pajamas.

[Millee]

Go see Menopause the Musical

Saw this in November. Absolutely hysterical! Good advice Chanti!

[Dashing Dasher]

Some guy passed on a freebie? This lady must be hideous.

Or... he is a decent man not wanting to take advantage of a woman in an emotional spot.

Or.... he realizes that 'no strings attached' isn't always true.

[peacebaby]

get back to work, woman!

[Auntbee]

Yep.

[peacebaby]

I think Laz is asleep.

Or has already taken her up on her offer.

[MozarkDawg]

Celibate means unmarried.
Chaste means not having sex.

Not according to my dictionary ... actually, just the opposite in fact.

[Cecily]

Or... he suddenly remembered the "no strings attached" Glenn Close character in "Fatal Attraction."

[Chanticleer]

It really is funny. Saw it with some girlfriends, then took my theater-loving husband to another showing. He was one of a handful of men and was absolutely miserable! I'd suggest leaving the guys at home.

[najida]

Most of the men I know in church are either
a. Jailbait.
b. Three days older than dirt.
c. Married.

[trubluolyguy]

I'm not any of those things....then again you don't know me. And you might consider 36 older than dirt, I don't know.

[Dashing Dasher]

Depends on which dictionary you use.

[trubluolyguy]

Or at least a coffee date

[MozarkDawg]

Nothing says woman like bloating, backache and menstrual cramps.

[najida]

Hitachi lasts forever.

[TruthSetsUFree]

"I am 45 and soon to be divorced.... My husband and I grew apart in the last years of the marriage."

I like the advice Susan Deitz gave her, but I wish she would have also included an encouragement to turn her new-found "aliveness" and "sensuousness" toward renewing the love between her husband and her. After all, I imagine when she and her husband married their vows includes words to the effect of "for better or for worse" and "until death do we part."

[najida]

Nope,
You're jailbait.

(In many trailer parks across America, I could be your Mama).

[Dashing Dasher]

How funny is it that ALL of us thought to ping Laz!
