If you don't mind me asking, why didn't you do these things before? None of them seem outrageous.
Not like uprooting a family with two small children, giving up two careers, nearby family, an support system and a community to start over in a new city 500 miles away to go to graduate school.
Sorry, I'm projecting...1 -

If it's available in your area, I'd suggest Krav Maga as far as self defense. I took it for a year while living in Kentucky.
Very effective.1 -

Remember, this too shall pass.
You're young, beautiful and kind.
Both you and your soon to be ex will both find someone else to make you happy.
.... maybe not right away, but in good time.2 -

I don't want to be one of those people who bad mouths their spouse during a divorce, so I'm going to try to be tackful.
My husband has the "you don't know how to do this because you're a woman" mind set. A couple of months ago, the toilet wouldn't stop running so I went to Lowes and bought the kit to replace the internal stuff. He knew I had never replaced one before and instead of being supportive he kept telling me I would screw it up. I showed him my middle finger and told him to watch me. 30 minutes later it was working like a charm. He didn't talk to me for two days. So growing a garden and killing my own meat is both a way to provide for myself and a metaphorical flipping him the bird.
Since I paid all of the bills and I rarely had help from him financially, I wasn't able to travel like I wanted to. So I want to take a well deserved trip to somewhere on my bucket list.
The self defence class is kind of self explanatory. I wanna be able to kick a dude's @ss if they give me trouble when I start dating again.9 -

I confess that I deal with anxiety. I seem to have a fear of death and it makes me worry unnecessarily.1

Curious. Is your anxiety what you were referring to that can keep you from progressing?0 -

At times, yes. I continue to detach from the chemical reaction inside -the panic, tension - and go through the motions to keep moving forward. Mine is just from trying to adjust to getting older and the inevitability of it all.

My biggest thing is exercise. Helps so much.

I confess that i cannot wrap my mind around anxiety. I don't look down on folks with it, just never have been blessed to experience it in the manner of a panic attack0 -

I understand not wanting to air the dirty laundry, and I deeply respect that. Sounds like fundamental incompatibility.
You are an accomplished professional woman! You can't do what you do without ability and know how.
You are gonna rock the world!
On the other hand, you are way too young to have a bucket list yet. Where do you want to go? Go fill up that passport!1 -
I confess I don't understand at all why you'd wink and send someone a message on a dating site, but never respond to their reply. Smh...
(I'm taking y'all's advice, even though I don't agree with it, I just paid a lot for this rip-off site so I might as well try and get my money's worth)0 -

I am glad you do that sometimes or you and I would have never known each other.
I'm still hoping to convert you. It's not looking good though.1 -
