RIght now yes, I am enjoying it a lot. Do I want to be single forever? No.

Another Masshole, reporting! :-)

As a single Mom I would rather see someone tell you up front that they aren't looking for that. I don't see anything wrong with it. It is a deal breaker like any other. Being upfront about what you do and don't want is a time saver, it is how you word things that is important. Not that you care if someone you don't know…

Off limits to me is anyone who has made a commitment to someone else. Any exclusive relationship means that he made a promise to someone else, if he can't keep a promise to her, he won't keep a promise to me.

XH only takes him for a few hours at a time right now and even at that I worry the whole time. It is nice to get some peace and actually clean but I still miss him terribly.

I think at your age and being in school it shouldn't be an issue.

Yeah, I also laugh at people who spend half an hour on an elliptical once or twice a week and call themselves "fit." Let's hand you a kettlebell that's half your bodyweight and see you do a Turkish get-up with it. Then we'll talk about how fit you are. [/quote] Oh Turkish Getups are the devil! I can barely manage with 8kg…

No I am not embarrassed to be single. I am pretty happy about it right now. Nobody really asks or implies that I should try to find someone. It has been hard on my relationship with BFF, she is still married and does a lot of things as a couple, so I get excluded a lot.

I would be ticked too. You should be flattered she is giving you 3 hours...WTH? Who isn't happy to be home by 830 on Saturday night? I am sorry you gave up Disney to spend time with her, I wouldn't make that choice again.

C-ya!

Don't try to solve our problems. When I have a bad day I will come home and vent and once it is out of my system I am fine. I don't need pep talk, for you to tell me how to fix it, to tell me to quit. Just "that sucks honey, Can I run you a hot bath?" a bit of time alone after rough day is the best reward.

Congrats on your amazing weight loss, and happy anniversary! Thank you for sharing your story.

Good Job! I can see a difference. How do you clothes fit? That always tells me how I am doing.

Hi- I am a 41 year old mother of a 3 year old. Feel free to add me.

Oh, thanks for the tip, I will have to stop and get a ticket tonight. You can't win if you don't play!

I just wanted to share a conversation I had with a woman at my gym. We do small group workouts with a trainer and the program changes ever week. Our program uses kettlebells, sleds, D-balls etc. So Jen was telling me that since we started adding dead-lifts to our routine she has noticed that it has improved her running.…

Hi- This is a 6 week bootcamp style workout, and the moves are similar to what I do with my trainer. It is a good home workout, you will get sore! http://www.womenshealthmag.com/fitness/workout-routine

Instead of being intimidated because you know more, they should set out to learn more. You shouldn't have to dumb yourself down so men won't be intimidated.

My roommate in college was one of those girls. I think no less than 5 times a guy hit on me she would go out of her way to make sure she went home with him. (I wasn't going to anyway) but it was upsetting.

Absolutely not. Be who you are. If someone is going to be intimidated by your education do you really want to date them? Personally I enjoy being around well educated people. I for some reason don't have the "science gene" and am pretty clueless, but seem to surround myself with people who work in science. There are a lot…

I met my XH online so I wouldn't rule it out. But I think there would have to be some sign that he knew I existed before I would throw myself out there. You never know where you will meet someone great.

I think it is interesting how many people don't want someone who has contact with an ex. I have a child (so that might be different) but I would prefer someone that had a decent relationship with an ex, I have good relationship with my xh because of our son. We are friendly, there isn't a snowball's chance in hell of us…

+1 I have to agree. Business and personal should not mix.

Having someone to clean the snow off my car. It was always so nice when XH would do that. Luckily we haven't had much snow!

I would be equally passive agressive. "Yes, I noticed you always do well with the low carb thing. What is this your 4th bout? You really have it down pat by now, great job"

Almost a year. XH and I split up last February. I don't mind being alone I enjoy the freedom but being single in a couple world bites. It is hard to keep the same friendship with BFF now because she wants to do everything with other couples.

I live near Lowell, so I am not far. Feel free to add me. Any support is good.
