Thus, any financial pitfalls made by your spouse will likely blowback on you as well. It can help two people work through their problems more easily when a counselor gives them a safe space within which to talk about any issues that they are dealing with. Put simply, couples set aside the same amount every month, for household expenses. For instance, for my household’s monthly estimated expense of, say, $5,600, if we were to choose this option, my husband and I would each be contributing $2,800. Gather your actual bills and list your expenses and income together.

I am sorry that you’ve been treated this way. Maybe I will start socializing more. I was not looking to get divorced, but now that I am, I know it was best. She tried the murder option first, but when that failed went for the divorce. I get lonely, but am not in any hurry.

You Can Spend Money However You Want

I really hope you find someone who isn’t selfish and who will respect you. If a man is genuine, respectful, and attentive, he deserves a chance. It is not fair to judge someone you don’t even know by what some other guy did or didn’t do.

I too have found it extremely difficult to find someone to spend time with after reaching 40. It was a shock to my system as I didn’t have a single problem in my 20s or 30s. I went on numerous dates, but there was either nothing in common or the men didn’t call after I wouldn’t sleep with them on the first date. I’m 44 and it seems men my age want to date women in their late 20s/early 30s.

And by “me” , yes, I mean “us men.” You see, for me I’d much rather be wanted than needed! And I suspect that women feel the same way but am not sure so I am asking here. You’re raising a boy like a girl, and it might not work out the way you’d like in the end. I have a feeling that no girl is going to be good enough for that poor kid and you’re going to ruin his love life. Not all men who prefer less experienced women are motivated like that, probably very few statistically… but NONE of us deserve feeling less than. There are mature minded and decent men out there, or better to be with the company of friends and alone at night.

I don’t totally agree with certain gender roles but of course I don’t swing towards the house husband idea. If 2 people are working each person should do their part in an equal manner. I will continue to be happy and alone until I find a like minded person. When he came into my life, we were both serious, open, and vulnerable.

Arian Moayed ‘hates’ that ‘A Doll’s House’ resonates so much with present day

I don’t show boobs on a first date and I hate short skirts. I take care of myself and I drink in moderation, don’t smoke, and exercise everyday. I wasn’t dumb enough to engage in illegal drugs or drink to excessiveness in college. Honestly, in my experience, they are scared to commit, and frankly, are confused and don’t no what they want. One common tactic is to wait for the “perfect” guy.

Someone who is willing to be supported by me and to support me when I need it. I don’t want another partner whose only way to relieve stress is to attack and try to humiliate me. I want someone I can talk to and listen to. My ex-wife idea of a conversation was for her to talk totally uninterrupted for 20 minutes or more while I quietly listened.

The woman is the one who has to take care of the children run the household and now thanks to women’s liberation also work. I didn’t even begin thinking about wanting a serious relationship until I was 35 but boy oh boy was I in for a surprise.. Now 42, I don’t want to be someone’s slave and don’t want a child of mine to have a terrible or absentee father.

Most women are just so very horrible and evil to meet altogether these days unfortunately, especially the ones that really have no manners and personality at all as well. A very completely different time we live in today, now that most women have really changed for the worst of all. Too many wanna bee barbie dolls nowadays that really think they’re all that, and most of these losers are real gold diggers to begin with as well. A lot of these posts are just sad.

A lot of women and men lack the openness to meet someone who does not tick all the boxes on their checklist. And if they would meet the person who ticks all these boxes www.thedatingpros.com they would probably complain that there is no chemistry. 3) I’m very wary of women who are extremely sexual on a first date, because that’s often a sign of a NUTJOB.

I can honestly vouch that some of these behavior behavior patterns exist, especially when you are new to dating after almost 25 years of marriage, raising kids, and focusing on your career. I was so excited about finding my true love at 47, but I had NO idea about the dating world in 2018. First date, the guy had no hair and a limp when his pictures clearly showed lots of hair and him waterskiing and playing golf. Then he tried to grope me in the parking lot afterwards and I had to explain that I didn’t feel comfortable since we just met.
