This is a re-connect for us-I’ve known him since I was in college-he had buddies to hang out with both from work and otherwise, like any regular person and was still okay like that when we got together back around 1990 when we both had our 20+ year marriages crash-but my hubby went off with a very young woman and his old lady found an older guy with money, so we weren’t emotionally healthy-he was inclined to have friends with benefits, so I declined to renew the relationship-I’m not into being a harem member...
After I married MrT5, I heard from mutual acquaintances that this guy had quit hanging with friends, got into a self help group, married and split up multiple times, shacked up with women from the group, etc. He came around after MrT5 died, and spent several months convincing me he was back to emotional health and we should be a pair-I bought in, so we’ll see what happens-it won’t work unless he loses the ego-support group-that s*** is for kids and snowflakes...
I don’t know anyone on my block, besides me, who can do a head gasket.
