<b><i>Unofficial</i> Singles Weekend Thread</b>

Myself | May 11th, 2007 | Nowhere Man

[Nowhere Man]

I figure I would ping the singles this weekend, nothing really fancy, just ad-hoc in case if the official thread gets posted. I just don't want to step on anyone's toes, yet, we missed out on last week so I figure I would ping all this week.

[Nowhere Man]

Well, go for it! B-)

[Nowhere Man]

I tried to format the title using HTML, sorry guys, didn't know that it would not work. B-)

Ping!

[RandallFlagg]

Thanks for the ping.
Officially single now.. Divorce was yesterday afternoon.
(Before I get hounded about it, please know that it wasn’t my choice)

[darkangel82]

So you’re a free man now?

[RandallFlagg]

Yep. 100%

[Army Air Corps]

Eres un hombre libre, eh?

[RandallFlagg]

Que?
Don’t know Spanish -other than what I heard from my old Cheech and Chong albums..

[Army Air Corps]

I was just commenting that you are now a free man.

Hopefully it was an amicable divorce.

[RandallFlagg]

It ended in her infidelity, but I’m very forgiving. I concentrated on the future of my Sons instead of any kind of payback or revenge.

[Army Air Corps]

Dang, it is quiet. Too quiet...

[Army Air Corps]

Well, at least you have a very positive attitude about the matter.

[RandallFlagg]

Took months to get there. Months of pain. My Sons must come first, though.

[txroadkill]

Been there brother, wasn't what I would call my choice either, but in the end, it was the best $30,000+ I ever spent.

Some advice, ( please feel free to ignore it) stay single for at least 3 years, or at least don't get into anything that would require a commitment. Take the time to get to know yourself again, you'll be surprised to learn that a lot of your personality has morphed into what your ex either wanted you to be, or what you became to keep peace.

[Petruchio]

I got Divorced in 1991 for the same reason. After 16 years I am thinking of dating again.

scary thought!

[bannie]

“How old are you Randall?” She asked as she got out her shot gun and her man-catchin’ net!

:-)
Sorry to hear that you got what you didn’t want..she lost a good one. If it’s any consolation, I’m sure she’ll regret it later.

sigh...

Life goes on.

Been there, done that, wrote the check. Hope you didn't run out of too many pens (or checkbooks) in the process.

[Old_Mil]

Oh, and let me be the first to welcome you to your new life of singleness and dating. Which, in the modern world, is like a visit to the dentist, only less pleasant.

[Shimmer128]

Bannie, you are so funny!

[Nowhere Man]

Thanks for the ping.

Welcomer aboard! Sorry to hear about it but I do hope it was amicable and if there are kids involved both you and your ex have their interests at heart. I know myself I'm a child of divorce and it is very hard when you're a young kid, I was 9 to 10 when it happened to me.

[Nowhere Man]

Dang, it is quiet. Too quiet...

I know, I'm wondering whose turn it was to host the singles thread? It seems like it died off last week and this week so I figure I'd better do something.

Well, my grey & white cat, Corky turns 18 today. She's doing quite well although she is diabetic, needs insulin everyday and does have some minor kidney failure so we have to give her IV's twice a week, on Wenesdays and Saturdays (tonite!) to relieve as much stress on the kidneys as possible to extend her life. She is eating like a pig and gaining some of her weight back (she did lose some weight before her diagnosis) and gets around well.
