Bookie,
BWS must be filling a void in your life, as it does for many of us.
Did you ever think you would belong to an online community and feel at home there? It is just an amazing phenomina (or however you spell that!) lol.
My hubby and I just flew through Salt Lake City to get to Hawaii....it looks like a beautiful place. I want so bad to go back there some day (soon) to explore it.

Bookie,
I know what you mean! I do have some good friends, but when you're single, sometimes it is still lonely. Most of my friends are either married or engaged and are not available except on occasion and usually for lunch. My dog Daisy helps a lot, but she isn't a very good communicator either, except for her tail. So it's very nice to click on BWS and talk to some friends whenever I want or need to.

Bookie,
You will always be "listened to" and "heard" on these forums. It's refreshing.
Sometimes there are things we want to talk about, but not with people who "really know us". LOL. Though we become known in this group - it is different. It's a "supportive, loving, non-judgemental" kind of being known.
Fancy that.
I'm sorry about your marriage. That is so hard. My DH and I have come a long way in 20 yrs. We had a blow up the other night (which we NEVER have) I was pmsing it, felt like all day everyone was demanding stuff from me, and we had a small (but loud) arguement. Well, I went to bed, my miserable sniffly self (back to him), he turned over, kissed me on the neck, and told me he was sorry for being an ass. Wow. I can count in twenty years how many times he has appologized...and it's been...once. Now, that's growth
I made it a point to thank him the next day - I told him it ment alot to me.
My marriage has not always been easy - my husband has talked about "running away" for years. I've just loved him, and loved him, and loved him.
I told him last thanksgiving, that if I had a magic wand, and I could change anything, that it would be that he would adore me, and think I was the worlds greatest wife. I also told him in the next breath, that in 5 years (when our last child is gone) that we can renogitate our marriage contract, and if he is still miserable, that we can go our own ways.
That was kinda of a turning point for us. I'm building a business that will give us (or me) financial freedom - and honestly, if he doesn't want to be with me - I would rather be alone to enjoy the fruits of my labor!
I don't believe I would ever re-marry. I've got girlfriends and batteries. LOL did I say that outloud. sorry! rofl
hugs of encouragement, danita
p.s. see in the single section the list of why most of us would never remarry.
