Responsibilities to the “New Woman”

Those red flags fly more easy for some than for others. As I get more wisdom, and have learned to trust my own intuition…. that little voice doesn’t have to scream like it did when I was in my teens or newly divorced and starting to date again. 
 The last date I had…. in the last [...]

More Thoughts on Full Disclosure

How do you start off a relationship? I’m thinking of the x’s, not mine… and I know that his relationships are not my business, with the exception of how the other person interacts with my child…. you better believe Mama Bear will show up if that person is not good to her. She is old [...]

Full Disclosure when Dating?

Sorry for disappearing…. I think I’m back… I hope I’m back. Life got in the way, it was overwhelming for a while. With the exception of being sick and a bit of travel all the overwhemness is still there, I’m just learning to deal with it, better…. one eruption at a time.  
On to my question [...]

Musical Inspiration – Fall

by Clay Walker….. not that I want to fall apart, but it sure would be nice to have someone with nice strong arms…to fall into…..  

It Just Gets Better…. Dating

So after my last post about getting an email from someone wanting to snuggle and make out like a teenager…. the emails have just gotten more “fun”.  Yes, I’d like to meet someone. He should be: 

adventuresome (I’d say the emails I’ve received fit that)
fun… (yeah, for the most part)
honest (probably not so much)
kind (debatable)
respectful (doubtful)
responsible (open for debate)
emotionally [...]

Online Dating…. Seriously!!

Life is so much fun….. in the weirdest way!!
I‘ve talked about dating here, but I really don’t think I’ve come across as “this is my profile… lets go out”. Have I?
Today I received an email…. paraphrasing here -
He’s not looking for anything serious…. wants to make out like teenagers….. and talk.
I love kissing…. I can [...]

Sagittarius (11/22-12/21)
You may not realize it, but you have just about reached the end of a journey. So stop your engines, step outside of your vehicle and take a look at where you are right now — this is it. If it doesn’t quite look the way you expected [...]

Healthy Love Relationship…

What would it look like? With all the talk about creating your own destiny, I’ve gotten to thinking about what my ideal relationship would look like.  

Sharing the good and bad
supporting each other
knowing I have a date for an important event (even if it is just snuggling on the couch)
having that special someone to talk to who [...]

Musical Inspiration – You’ll Think of Me

Or why I think breaking up can be a gift.  When you leave someone, or they leave you, the opportunity presents itself for you to meet the person who is a better match for you. I don’t want to stay with anyone just because we’re already together…. thats not to say I [...]

Carry On

I had a conversation with a younger friend of mine recently. She was supposed to do some things with a guy she really likes, but for whatever reason he ended up not going. When she and I were talking she was upset, understandably. I asked her if there was anything she and I could do together. We [...]
