Good for you! You are talking about warm weather scuba diving? If so, you will have a great time diving in places like the Barrier Reef, Micro Asia, Roatan, etc. Have a wonderful time. Nothing like it.

That was the plan... I did a class & did the pool diving, etc. The only thing I had left for certification was a dive in a lake and everything was going fine at first but then I had sinus issues that resulted in the complication of an eardrum rupturing. But I will do that eventually.

Don’t push your eardrums. Take Sudafed or some other non-drowsy decongestant the night before diving and again when you get up. Makes ‘clearing’ that much easier.

Been reading this thread with interest. Caught my ex cheating after 27 years of marriage. Was crushed. But one of the problems was that we really had nothing in common any longer. There were no kids (her choice). Her interest ran on way, I got into skiing & Scuba. Different sets of friends and so forth. Looking back it was bound to happen.

Her ‘friend’ dropped her like a hot potato when I found out. Turns out he was married too.

Anyway, moved out of the area, got a divorce, met a great woman thru diving and have been enjoying life again. Keep a positive outlook. Work your plan. Things will workout for you.
